2019 Les Entretiens Européens Rapprocher - Débattre - Fraterniser Programme and Presentation of the speakers New nuclear in Europe: a response to the electric changes in our society ? With the support of HELSINKI NOVEMBER 12-13, 2019

Partners Co-organisers Les Entretiens Européens With the support and the participation of With the partnership of Discussing issues and options T his conference forms part of a long-term strategy. We want to clarify the contradictions posed by growth in electricity demand and reducing greenhouse gases, and anticipate, even plan, policies and strategies capable of resolving this challenge. Indeed, Europe and the world are being “electrified“. The electrification of cars, housing, agriculture, health, space, digital… is growing at a very fast pace. Companies and local authorities will have to invest and innovate. How can we articulate the climate emergency and the European economic challenges, where efficiency will become a new type of industrial policy and where the energy sector will have to produce and at the same time provide adequate services, and this in a more affordable way? What will be the right energy mix which is both affordable and low-carbon? Short-term strategies that seek better cost-benefit ratios often run counter to CO 2 zero targets in 2050: how do they fit in a long-term strategy? Decarbo- nised sources raise competitiveness concerns, and new nuclear energy - which is an ally for climate goals - will have to be able to spread its costs and pool them to mobilize resources in order to innovate. More diverse and flexible, it will be able to adapt to the diverse needs and demands of industry and territories. Beyond proposals for more responsible governance between Member States and the European Commission for the implementation of public policies, we will discuss the option of creating a European planning agency in consultation with users and energy producers, responsible for contributing to the creation of a coherent network system at European level, with enhanced skills and intelligent services. These issues and options will be discussed during Les Entretiens Européens in Helsinki, organized by ASCPE with FinNuclear and GMF , Group of European Municipalities with Nuclear Facilities, the support of the European Commission, and the partnership and participation of many industrial and territorial actors from Europe.
