POWER: Italian Edison Eyes Participation in Possible Nuclear Build
POWER
Italy’s Edison is attracted to taking part in the government's nuclear development project, with Italy planning to draft new rules regarding nuclear by early 2025, Edison said, cited by Reuters.
- “We are waiting for the publication of documents... we want to be part of this project," Edison's CEO Nicola Monti said.
- Italy banned nuclear energy after it was rejected in a national referendum in 1987 and another in 2011.
- But Edison was willing to restart production of nuclear power in Italy by 2040 if the regulatory framework allows it, it said last year.
