The increase was due to reactor upgrades that improved efficiency and reactors shortening the time they are out of operation for maintenance.The IEA has been more vocal in recent months about the importance of nuclear energy.<\/p>\n<p>In February, the IEA held a workshop on the role of nuclear power in the clean energy system, which will lead to a report on the issue, and IEA Executive Director Dr. Fatih Birol spoke on the margins of the Canadian Nuclear Association\u2019s annual conference in Ottawa.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNuclear energy plays an important role in both energy security and sustainability in today\u2019s energy mix,\u201d Birol said at a recent IEA workshop.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHowever, without appropriate policy attention, its contribution will shrink, creating challenges for meeting our energy policy goals in the future. As an all-fuels and all-technologies organization, the IEA monitors the development of nuclear energy and its potential role in the clean energy transitions.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The IEA has an important role in making policymakers understand the scope of the challenge the world faces in providing clean and reliable electricity as transportation electrifies and more and more people in the developing world become electricity consumers.<\/p>\n<p>Governments need to act pragmatically and, like the IEA, realize the role all technologies can play in the energy system of the future.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The latest International Energy Agency (IEA)\u00a0numbers are out\u00a0and nuclear power continued to grow in 2018, despite concerns about reactor closures in the U.S. and elsewhere.
