L’energia nuclear és l’ús de reaccions nuclears que alliberen energia per generar calor, que amb més freqüència s’utilitza posteriorment en turbines de vapor per produir electricitat en una central nuclear. L’energia nuclear a Alemanya va representar el 17,7% del subministrament elèctric nacional el 2011, en comparació amb 22,4% el 2010. Els autors argumenten que l’energia nuclear és ara segur i emet molt menys emissions de carboni que les plantes de carbó. Els opositors sostenen que els recents desastres nuclears al Japó demostren que l’energia nuclear està lluny de ser segur.
