Background Information
On November 22, 2007, the EC published its Strategic Energy Technology (SET) Plan, "Towards a Low Carbon Future". This document recognises the role of nuclear fission in today's energy mix and identifies the development of Generation IV systems as one of the paths to Europe's future low carbon energy mix. It also calls for European Industrial Initiatives in six areas, including nuclear fission.
