Slightly agree

No, we should invest in cleaner alternatives such as wind, hydroelectric, thorium, and geothermal

While the EPP supports investment in cleaner alternatives, it does not exclusively endorse these at the expense of nuclear energy, viewing it as part of a balanced and secure energy mix.

Disagree

No

The EPP is not fundamentally opposed to nuclear energy, viewing it as a necessary component of the energy transition towards lower carbon emissions, thus disagreeing with a complete rejection of nuclear power.

Strongly disagree

Yes, and nationalize the industry

Nationalizing the industry would be contrary to the EPP’s general support for market economies and private sector involvement in the energy sector, making this option less likely to be supported.
