Tightening Nuclear Power Supply in France Puts Europe's Power Market under Pressure

(18 February 2022) Due to nuclear reactors maintenance and repair program, EDF - a French multinational electric utility company - revised down its nuclear electricity generation estimates for 2022 (from 300 – 330 TWh to 295 – 315 TWh) and 2023 (from 340 – 370 TWh to 300-330 TWh). The decrease in nuclear power generation in France can potentially push up power prices in Europe in coming months.According to the European Network of Transmission System Operators for Electricity (ENTSO-E), in 2021 nuclear power generation in France amounted to 359 TW and accounted for 70% of total electricity generation.The downward revision for nuclear energy generation announced by EDF is an equivalent of 2 and 7% of total 2021 electricity generation in France.According to Eurostat, France is the second largest electricity exporter in Europe. In 2020 France exported 64.6 TWh of electricity. Major importers of electricity from France in 2020 were Italy, Germany, the United Kingdom and Spain.

Asia Bets on Nuclear Power in Global Energy Transition

(24 December 2021) While many countries have started to phase out nuclear power generation under the pressure of safety concerns raised by the 2011 Fukushima accident, many Asian and Middle East countries have ambitious plans to substantially increase their nuclear power generation capacity.According to the latest data from the World Nuclear Association, the total capacity of proposed and planned nuclear reactors in Asian* countries reaches 301 Gigawatts, which is nearly twice the capacity of operable reactors and reactors currently under construction. For the Middle East this ratio is even higher, with proposed and planned reactor capacity 3.4 times greater than that of existing reactors and those already under construction — though the total capacity of existing nuclear power generation in the Middle East (4 gigawatts) is much lower than the current capacity in Asia (114 gigawatt).For North America, Europe, and CIS** countries, the ratio of planned and proposed nuclear reactor capacity to existing capacity and capacity under construction equals 0.14, 0.25, and 1.15, respectively. In the tables below, you can explore data on current, under-construction, planned, and proposed nuclear capacity by country and region. Select a nuclear power reactor status and measure (number of reactors or total capacity in megawatts electrical, MWe) from the first drop-down to view details in the table to the right.

BP Energy Outlook to 2050 //knoema.es/aamrysg/bp-energy-outlook-to-2050 2021-06-08T09:06:58Z Misha Gusev knoema.es://knoema.es/user/1000560
BP Energy Outlook to 2050

The BP Energy Outlook evaluates different aspects of the energy transition and highlights key issues and uncertainties of the transition. In all the scenarios considered, world GDP more than doubles by 2040, driven by increasing prosperity in fast-growing developing economies. In the business-as-usual scenario, this improvement in living standards causes energy demand to increase by around a third over the outlook period, driven by India, China, and 'Other Asia,' which together account for two-thirds of the increase. Despite this increase in energy demand, around two-thirds of the world’s population in 2050 still live in countries where average energy consumption per head is relatively low, highlighting the need for more energy. The world continues to electrify, with around three-quarters of the increase in primary energy absorbed by the power sector. Other projections covered by the Energy Outlook to 2050:Renewable energy is the fastest-growing source of energy, contributing half of the growth in global energy supplies and becoming the largest source of power by 2050.Demand for oil and other liquid fuels grows for the first part of the outlook period before gradually plateauing. The increase in liquids production is initially dominated by US tight oil, but OPEC production subsequently increases as US tight oil production declines.Natural gas grows robustly, supported by broad-based demand and the increasing availability of gas, aided by the continuing expansion of liquefied natural gas (LNG).Global coal consumption peaked in 2018 and continues to decrease in the following decades, with the most decline in Asian and North America's countries.

Seven Big Summits: The Nuclear Security Summit

Event date: March 31 - April 1 The US Council on Foreign Relation's "Seven Big Summits" calendar kicks off in early spring, when President Obama will welcome world leaders back for the final meeting of what is perhaps his signature foreign policy initiative, the biennial Nuclear Security Summit (NSS). The president launched the NSS to close a glaring gap in the nuclear nonproliferation regime: the presence of loose nukes and fissile material that could fall into the hands of terrorist groups or rogue states. As at the three previous meetings, four dozen countries and several international organizations will announce “gift baskets”—steps they have taken, independently and jointly, to reduce the vulnerability of their nuclear arsenals and facilities. Unfortunately, the NSS series is currently slated to expire when Obama leaves office. To cement his legacy, the president should work with foreign partners to give this ad hoc process a permanent institutional home, perhaps by transferring it (along with additional resources) to the International Atomic Energy Agency.

Nuclear Testing: North Korea Breaking Ban //knoema.es/fogdpv/nuclear-testing-north-korea-breaking-ban 2017-10-04T17:00:03Z Alex Kulikov knoema.es://knoema.es/user/1847910
Nuclear Testing: North Korea Breaking Ban

On September 11, the UN Security Council adopted its 8th sanction resolution against North Korea. The resolution came in response to the country’s nuclear test on September 3 in violation of the Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty of 1996 (CTBT) banning nuclear explosions regardless of purpose. The test was the sixth violation by North Korea. Previously, North Korea conducted nuclear tests in 2006, 2009, 2013, and twice in 2016. Each time North Korea has conducted nuclear tests, the UN Security Council has responded by adopting new sanction resolutions against the country. A total of eight sanction resolutions have been adopted, including two additional resolutions after North Korea's successful satellite launches in 2012 and 2016.Except for North Korea, only India and Pakistan have violated the CTBT; each conducted nuclear tests twice in 1998. Although the UN has now imposed a variety of sanctions on North Korea, the sanctions primarily restrict the trade of specific products.Exports. The full list of North Korea exports embargo now includes all weapons, copper, nickel, silver, zinc, lead and lead ore, iron and iron ore, coal, seafood, textile, helicopters, and statutes. Excluding weapons and helicopters, for which no data is available, the covered products constitute about 74 percent of North Korea's exports, with coal and textile the major export products. The UN added these products, except weapons, to the embargo list in 2016 and 2017.Imports. Restrictions on imports include weapons, luxury goods, nuclear and missile dual-use technologies, crude oil and all refined petroleum products, and all condensates and natural gas liquids. Petroleum products are the country's primary imported products, accounting for about 6 percent of the country's total imports. You could say, “they” started, they being the United States and the former Soviet Union, and the world is certainly watching to see how they (and others) will end it now that North Korea increasingly dismisses all overtures for reigning in its military ambitions. In addition to sanctions, the US is seeking to encourage foreign governments, such as Sudan, to limit engagement with and support of Pyongyang.Nuclear testing began in July 1945 when the United States tested its first atomic bomb. The United States detonated 1,032 nuclear explosions from 1945 to 1992; the Soviet Union, 715 during roughly the same time period. A distant third in total detonations is France with 210, followed by China and the UK with 45 detonations each.During the five decades between 1945 and 2006, countries used more than 60 locations to detonate more than 2,000 nuclear devices. For some cases, the testing assists researchers to understand how such weapons act in different conditions and estimate the threat such detonations pose to the public. For others, like North Korea, nuclear testing is more political, a national assertion of military, scientific, and national preeminence.
