The Philippine Department of Energy is evaluating seven new sites for nuclear power plants aiming to reach 1.4 gigawatts of nuclear capacity by 2038, supported by technical assessments from the International Atomic Energy Agency and new regulatory frameworks.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Clean Energy.

◆ The Wire takeaway
