Nuclear power provides a quarter of the world’s clean electricity and has an important role to play in the transition to net zero. Recognizing that nuclear power is part of the solution to mitigate climate change, the COP28 Presidency and the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) will co-host this event at COP28 to announce the IAEA Statement on Nuclear Power, which reflects the nuclear’s critical role in the net zero transition and is supported by 50+ nuclear operating and newcomer countries, and discuss the ways forward in paving the way to count with nuclear in the pathway to net zero.
