Study: Greek Islands Could Benefit From Floating Nuclear Power by 2035

A new study by the Deon Policy Institute, ABS, Core Power and Athlos Energy concludes that floating nuclear power plants could benefit Greek islands by 2035-40. Non-interconnected islands like those in the Cyclades and Dodecanese currently depend on diesel-fired generating stations. Floating nuclear plants, built on barges and towed into position, could replace oil-fired power plants, support seaport electrification, and supply data centers. The technology is mature, but regulatory work and public acceptance remain necessary for implementation.
