Greece is "turning the page" on nuclear energy and has established a dedicated committee to assess whether small modular reactors could form part of its energy mix, prime minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis told the second Nuclear Energy Summit in Paris.

"I am here in Paris to announce that Greece will also be turning the page. It is high time for my country to look at nuclear energy, to see whether small modular reactors could perhaps play a role in our energy mix. We have set up a dedicated committee for this purpose," Mitsotakis said.
