Participants:
“We have set ambitious targets. When we meet them, nuclear power will make up 20% and eventually even 25-30% of gross national energy production, as compared to the current level of 16% ... We know full well that expanding the nuclear power industry will reduce energy costs, save oil and gas, and spare the environment.”
