Click here to find the contribution which in short calls on the European Commission to:

1. Exclude nuclear energy from the EU Taxonomy due to its unsustainable and high-risk nature.
2. Strengthen transparency by requiring verifiable, science-based evidence for all technical screening criteria.
3. Enforce compliance with EU and Euratom laws on nuclear safety, waste management, and public participation.
4. Update LCA methodologies to reflect real-world environmental impacts of nuclear energy.
5. Prioritize renewable energy as the cornerstone of a sustainable and democratic energy transition.

Finally, NTW always welcomes any possibility enabling more transparency, public participation, and environmental justice in energy policymaking.
