Italian parliament backs Meloni's plan to restart nuclear power

Italy's Senate approved a government plan to restart nuclear power generation using advanced modular reactors to enhance energy security and decarbonise industry, ending a near 40-year anti-nuclear hiatus. The plan aims for nuclear energy to account for at least 11% of Italy's energy mix by 2050, with possible increases to 22%, targeting reduced energy import dependency and €17 billion in decarbonisation savings.
