KUALA LUMPUR: France can serve as a model and benchmark for Malaysia as it explores nuclear energy as a potential source for electricity generation, says Deputy Prime Minister Datuk Seri Fadillah Yusof. Fadillah, who is also Energy Transition and Water Transformation Minister, said the European nation's success in developing 57 nuclear power plants-supplying nearly 70% of its electricity needs from clean energy offers valuable insights.
Currently on a working visit to France, Fadillah earlier attended a knowledge-sharing session with the country's key authorities and agencies responsible for regulatory frameworks, governance as well as research and development in nuclear technology, expertise and human capital.
