(ANSA) – ROME, DEC 13 – “It is certain that nuclear power will be included in the European taxonomy of sustainable finance, they have already anticipated it. It is a source that does not produce CO2”. The Minister of Ecological Transition, Roberto Cingolani, said this this morning at a web meeting with high school students, organized by the Cosmopolites educational project.
“We voted in referendums that excluded nuclear power – explained Cingolani -. It was first generation nuclear power, not what we are talking about now. In the future, when we have all the data on costs per megawatt, on waste production radioactive, on how safe they are (4th generation power plants, ed), then the country will be able to take its decisions, with another referendum, with laws “.
“Today my position as a technician is that I would not build 1/2/2 generation power plants, which are complex and have problems with radioactive waste – continued the minister -. I am sure that the small modular reactors (the 4 / th generation fission power plants, ed), which are basically engines of nuclear ships, are small and safer. From there, excellent news could come in terms of costs and benefits. But they are being studied in various countries, it will take several more years. If such a technology were to be studied, I think it would be wise, I would. Then I am absolutely certain that nuclear fusion will be the solution to everything “. (HANDLE).
