3h Global investment in nuclear energy doubled between 2010 & 2023
And it needs to double again to $120 billion to reach countries’ goals
Public funding alone will not be sufficient to build a new era for nuclear: greater private financing will be key https://iea.li/4bPAUgJ

Mar 13 Big Tech acting like they’re countries by signing on to the tripling nuclear power pledge by 2050. Easy for them to advocate when they’re not paying for it (or dealing w/ the waste, etc. that’s generated).
