Singaporeans show growing acceptance of nuclear energy, study finds

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

A recent study indicates that nearly a third of Singaporeans, specifically 31.4%, are open to the potential of nuclear energy as a clean power source. This represents the highest acceptance rate in Southeast Asia and an 11.1% increase from the previous year. The study, conducted by the ISEAS-Yusof Ishak Institute and the Singapore University of Technology and Design, suggests that this growing acceptance is partly due to a limited availability of green energy options in Singapore beyond solar power.
