In 1997, over one-third of Europe’s electricity came from nuclear reactors. By 2023, that proportion had dropped to 23%. Yet worldwide, nuclear output is expected to reach its highest level on record in 2025, propelled by 70 gigawatts of capacity under construction and the reactivation of dormant reactors in Japan and elsewhere. These shifts illustrate a dynamic tension: advanced economies have reduced their reliance on nuclear, while emerging markets are ramping up. Evidence suggests a recalibration is under way, framed by energy security concerns, the acceleration of data-hungry technologies, and revived policy interest in long-term power stability. New demand drivers…
