There are many motivations for nuclear energy adoption, but for Net Zero Nuclear the focus is on tripling nuclear energy by 2050 to decarbonize the entire economy and provide access to 24/7 clean energy to power development and prosperity.  

Net Zero Nuclear was launched by World Nuclear Association (WNA) and the Emirates Nuclear Energy Corporation (ENEC), with the support of the Atoms4NetZero initiative launched by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), at the World Nuclear Symposium in London in 2023.   

Yasuharu Kimura, Executive Officer, Vice President of Sustainable Solutions and Senior General Manager of Nuclear Energy Division, JGC Corporation, said 

“We are deeply honored to continue to be involved in the Net Zero Nuclear initiative. JGC Corporation is contributing to “Enhancing planetary health” and pursuing the potential of nuclear technology as a safe and clean energy source that can realize a decarbonized society, based on the world’s leading EPC execution technology that we have accumulated through our 100-year history.” 

Dr Sama Bilbao y Leon, Director General of World Nuclear Association said: “We welcome continuing our partnership with JGC Corporation. Achieving the Net Zero Nuclear goal of at least tripling of nuclear capacity by 2050 will require us all to work together, and therefore I welcome IHI and JGC to the growing number of companies that have leant us their support.”
