Zusammenfassung:For more than 60 years, nuclear energy has been a dependable supply of electricity to the entire world. There are currently more than 450 nuclear power facilities in more than 30 different nations. Without producing any hazardous chemicals, these stations provide up to 10% of the electricity used globally. Modern society requires a reliable energy supply. Society needs an energy source that can keep up with rising demand, is dependable, economically viable, and sustainable in terms of its effects on the local and global environment. It is anticipated that humankind will use more energy in the next fifty years than it did in all of human history the nuclear energy sector will prosper given that the demand for electricity is increasing and the current sources of fossil fuels are rapidly running out because time is running out, today’s issues must be addressed and prepared for clean energy systems in the future. In this paper, many countries are working to nuclear energy - whether expanding existing generation or building new nuclear energy programs and provides information on the current situation of the nuclear industry in some Arab and international countries and the possibility of its growth during the next 10 or 20 years. The move toward nuclear power takes advantage of the environmental momentum against the causes of global warming and climate change. As a green resource with no co2 emissions. In addition, the economic goals of renewable energy sources have not been achieved so far, in order to meet the challenge of meeting the requirements of electric energy production in the world. Therefore, this important source of low-carbon electricity must be expanded. Now, in 2023, New nuclear reactors must be built more quickly, and existing nuclear reactors’ operational lives must be extended as much as possible. Work on motivating, luring, and developing the global workforce required to advance nuclear energy, assisting the worldwide nuclear sector in supplying sustainable energy for everyone, round-the-clock.
