What is needed to unlock decarbonisation of industrial energy users with nuclear energy in Poland
Overview In 2025, Clean Air Task Force hosted convenings and bilateral conversations with decision-makers from Poland’s major industrial energy consumers, energy system planners and regulator, Ministry of Energy, and the European Commission. These discussions aimed to coalesce around the recommendations on what is needed (at national and European level) to…

Actions to Address Executive Order 14300: Reforming the Nuclear Regulatory Commission
Executive Order 14300, Reforming the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, represents a fundamental shift in how the federal government directs the licensing and regulation of civilian nuclear energy.

Clean Air Task Force Recommendations for the EU SMR Strategy
As the European Union (EU) advances toward its 2050 climate neutrality goal, the timely deployment of Small Modular Reactors (SMRs) has emerged as a critical enabler of a secure, low-carbon, and competitive energy system. SMRs have the potential to complement renewable energy sources by providing firm, low-carbon power, while supporting…

EIB Climate Bank Roadmap 2026-30: Strengthening the EU’s climate action toolbox through strategic sustainable finance
Introduction Climate change arguably remains the most urgent challenge of our time. Record-breaking temperatures month after month and increasingly deadly and economically devastating climate disasters demonstrate that decisive and sustained action is still needed to cut planet-warming emissions. While other priorities for public funding and support have emerged, addressing climate…

Energising the EU: How Nuclear Energy Can Help Decarbonise European Industry
Heavy industries account for over half of Europe’s energy consumption, much of which goes toward heat production – a sector that still widely uses fossil fuels and is thus a major risk to the EU’s ability to decarbonise. Emissions from heavy industries are mostly attributed to high-temperature heat and round-the-clock…

Strengthening Poland’s Nuclear Strategy through Financing, Small Modular Reactors, and International Collaboration
Introduction Poland’s energy transition faces distinct challenges rooted in its overreliance on coal, aging infrastructure, and fiscal constraints. The country’s longstanding dependence on coal in Poland’s energy sector presents unique challenges as the country strives for a low-carbon future. As the tenth most manufacturing-reliant economy in Europe with a carbon-intensive…

Nuclear Energy Orderbooks 101: Enabling Cost-Effective Nuclear Deployment in Europe
EU Member States expect to deploy at least 60 GW of new nuclear capacity by 2050 to meet its climate and energy security goals. But without greater coordination, the bloc risks a fragmented rollout of new nuclear energy: duplicated efforts, spiralling costs, underinvested supply chains, and project delays. A nuclear…
