Christer want to know how the parties agrees to a new research reactor in Oskarshamn.
The question was last updated in the mid- August when the Research Council was asked to look at an application to build a new reactor.
Janne Wallenius, professor at the Royal Institute of Technology (KTH), is behind the application of about $ 1.5 billion. It has been done in collaboration with researchers at Uppsala University and Chalmers University in Gothenburg.
The new research reactor will emit significantly less waste, require shorter repository and be able to run on spent nuclear fuel.
– Firstly, nuclear power is an important part of the global supply of electricity. Sweden has a long tradition of developing advanced nuclear power, we should seize. This project is exactly what could manifest that Sweden is a world leader in the development of modern nuclear power, says Janne Wallenius to echo.
The decision to grant money to the project or not will be taken by the government that comes to power after the fall election. Both among the red-green parties and the Alliance are parties that are opposed to a new reactor is built.
The Centre Party is against the proposal, as well as the Green Party and the Left Party. The Social Democrats would not comment.
– We’ll see if it ever ends up on the political table. If it does, says the Centre Party no. We want to focus on green, renewable energy and support the already started and existing research facilities, says Annie Loof (C) to the echo.
Jan Björklund (Liberal) do positive and says that to proceed with the proposal for the Swedish Research Council is positive.
