The Minister of Energy, Bogdan Ivan, states that Romania will triple its nuclear energy production capacity in the next decade.

At the Nuclear Energy Summit in Paris, the Minister of Energy, Bogdan Ivan, emphasized the importance of nuclear energy as a solution for the clean energy deficit. Romania, with 60 years of experience in this field, has high-performance nuclear reactors, ranked among the top in the IAEA scoreboard.

Ivan highlighted that nuclear energy already covers one-fifth of the national electricity consumption and that, in the next 10 years, production capacities will nearly triple. The projects at Cernavodă, including the modernization of Reactor 1 and the development of Units 3 and 4, are essential for Romania's energy security and competitiveness. Additionally, the first SMR project in Europe is being developed in Doicești, which will bring investments and jobs.
