US vows more robust support for Phl nuclear dev't
The Philippine Star
|July 21, 2024
The United States is further beefing up its support for the Philippines in establishing a legal framework for the development and peaceful use of nuclear energy sources, according to a visiting regulatory official.
“I think we’re going to see a real increase in the tempo of engagement from the US on the nuclear safety aspects,” US Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) chairman Christopher Hanson said.
Hanson, who was on a two-day visit to the country, expects a “real uptick” in the amount of interest from US companies to work with the Philippine government in exploring and deploying nuclear power.
Hanson’s visit to the Philippines followed the entry into force of the landmark “123 agreement” between Washington and Manila to utilize nuclear energy safely.
The deal, signed in November 2023 after about seven months of negotiations, is expected to enhance the two countries’ collaboration in fostering clean energy and ensuring energy security.
