August 31,2012--Summary
The global nuclear power industry has gone through a difficult period since the Fukushima disaster which occurred last year.The disaster occurred due to a Tsunami caused by an earthquake,which disabled the reactor cooling and power supply,leading to the core meltdown and radiation leak.However,the nuclear industry is projected to grow despite the nuclear catastrophe.Most nuclear countries intend to continue power generation through nuclear energy,while some have decided to phase out nuclear power due to safety concerns.Although some countries like Germany and Italy have decided to phase out nuclear power from their energy mix,many more countries which presently do not have nuclear power generating facilities have expressed a strong interest in developing such facilities.
The emerging nuclear power countries could become a high potential market for nuclear suppliers domestically and globally.This will also throw open an opportunity for uranium exporters and technology suppliers to play a major role in the development of nuclear energy in these countries.A bright future for the nuclear industry is expected by companies like Areva,Rolls-Royce and Westinghouse,which continue to support the industry.These companies have not shut facilities down despite the Fukushima disaster,citing the enormous potential of this industry.
