Nuclear power has role to play, atomic energy head tells AFP at COP28

It would be a mistake to reject nuclear power because of problems at a handful of projects, Rafael Grossi, head of the International Atomic Energy Agency said in an interview with AFP.
Grossi was speaking at the COP28 conference in Dubai, where on Saturday a group of large countries are expected to call for nuclear power capacity to be tripled by 2050 as part of the fight against global warming.But rejecting all nuclear projects because of these setbacks would be "an error", Grossi insisted.
