Some compelling reasons: high reliability, and zero CO2 emissions. Countries that count on nuclear power for more than half of their electricity generation include France (72%), Slovakia (55%) and Hungary (53%); it’s more than 18% in the US and 20% in Russia. A growing interest in small modular reactors (SMR) indicate nuclear power is poised for a resurgence — across the world. Photo shows young bikers next to a full-scale nuclear power plant in France.
