With the willingness of the European Union to drastically reduce its dependence on Russian gas, the issues of nuclear energy production came to the fore in the European Union. Some European countries show a renewed interest in nuclear energy and argue for its development while others do not support such initiatives. This issue is important in the context of the European climate goals. Each member state chooses its own scenario to achieve the goals. “The European Green Deal strategy targets accelerated sustainability transitions, yet the pathways and processes thereto differ markedly across EU member-states, particularly in the energy sector. Politics and institutional contexts largely determine the transition dynamics.” (Zepa I. Energy Res Social Sci 93, 2022. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.erss.2022.102809 ). This article uses the literature on nuclear energy policy and its impact on EU member states and public opinion. The main data sources are Eurostat, European Commission reports, International Energy Agency data, World Bank data, World Resources Institute data, and others to analyze and compare data from 2009 and 2024.

摘要

With the willingness of the European Union to drastically reduce its dependence on Russian gas, the issues of nuclear energy production came to the fore in the European Union. Some European countries show a renewed interest in nuclear energy and argue for its development while others do not support such initiatives. This issue is important in the context of the European climate goals. Each member state chooses its own scenario to achieve the goals. “The European Green Deal strategy targets accelerated sustainability transitions, yet the pathways and processes thereto differ markedly across EU member-states, particularly in the energy sector. Politics and institutional contexts largely determine the transition dynamics.” (Zepa I. Energy Res Social Sci 93, 2022. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.erss.2022.102809 ). This article uses the literature on nuclear energy policy and its impact on EU member states and public opinion. The main data sources are Eurostat, European Commission reports, International Energy Agency data, World Bank data, World Resources Institute data, and others to analyze and compare data from 2009 and 2024.
