Positive Stress Test Results to Rebuild Confidence in Nuclear Power

Summary

The Fukushima disaster raised serious concerns around the world regarding the safety of nuclear power. Countries around the world declared that stress tests would be conducted on nuclear reactors to ensure their safety against accidents like earthquakes, floods and loss of electrical power. Countries like India, France, Bulgaria, Spain and the UK have concluded that their nuclear reactors are safe and comply with the safety standards put forth by the relevant regulatory authorities. However, additional modifications are recommended to further ensure the safety of these nuclear reactors. The strengthening of safety measures can help mitigate anti nuclear sentiments sparked by Fukushima. The emerging nuclear countries can also rely on these tests to ensure nuclear safety.
