Italy opens the door to nuclear power after nearly 40 years
🇮🇹 Italy’s Senate has given final approval to the sustainable nuclear energy bill, with 81 votes in favor, 51 against and 7 abstentions, completing the parliamentary approval process.
⚛️ The law does not mean Italy will immediately start building nuclear plants. It is an enabling law giving the government 12 months to establish the regulatory framework for licensing, operations, fuel, waste management and nuclear safety.
🏗️ The current strategy focuses on next-generation technologies such as SMRs and AMRs rather than a return to traditional large-scale reactors. The 2033–2034 timeline for the first facilities remains an estimate, not a legally guaranteed deadline.
📊 For now, the main impact is a long-term policy signal for Italy and Europe’s nuclear supply chain, while Italy’s power mix and energy import needs are unlikely to change immediately.
