First nuclear energy summit held in Brussels to highlight role of nuclear energy in confronting global challenges. Arab participation was limited to Egypt and Saudi Arabia.
Summit aims to strengthen efforts to facilitate the mobilization of public and private investments towards additional nuclear energy projects. Participants called for nuclear energy to be further included in “environmental, social and governance” (ESG) policies in the international financial system, taking into account that it is one of the zero-emission energy sources that can contribute significantly to decarbonization.
