A report entitled The Role of Nuclear Energy in Powering Universal Energy Abundance for Emerging Economies was released on Friday, Dec 5, surveys the tremendous opportunities to be opened up with the unleashing of nuclear energy in the Global South, including in Africa. While the report says absolutely nothing not already known, it does serve to profile in great detail the energy situation in six most advanced nuclear-capable countries, with case studies of Brazil, Ghana, India, Indonesia, Nigeria and Rwanda.
Coming, as it does— in the wake of the Oct 27 warning issued by two, supposedly “pro-nuclear” activists at the Energy for Growth Hub (a Rockefeller Foundation-funded NGO) warned that the West was on the verge of losing control of the nuclear development question— this must be seen as the establishment’s “call to arms” of the western world’s philanthropic (private finance) institutions in response to that wake-up call.
