KUALA LUMPUR: Nuclear as an energy source is essential for Malaysia to achieve net zero by 2050 and is expected to be included in the 13th Malaysia Plan, says Economy Minister Rafizi Ramli.

“I can mention openly now, nuclear is on the table – because without nuclear and if we were to miss one or two (options), its quite difficult for Malaysia to achieve net zero by 2050,” he said during an industry dialogue session at the National OGSE Blueprint Forum 2024 here yesterday.
