Nuclear Energy Program Supported by 85% of U.A.E. Residents

SFGate reports Emirates Nuclear Energy Corp. says 85% of U.A.E. residents in a national poll support the country’s development of nuclear power plants.

The market news is quoted as saying:

Nuclear power projects in some European countries have been halted amid public fears over reactor safety following the March meltdown of the JFukushima Dai-Ichi reactor in Japan. Chancellor Angela Merkel endorsed a blueprint last month to shut Germany’s nuclear-power plants by 2022, making the nation the biggest to exit atomic power.
