Nuclear energy and sustainability : Understanding ITER

摘要: Abstract Deregulation and new environmental requirements combined with the growing scarcity of fossil resources increasing world energy demand lead to a renewal debate on tomorrow's energies. Specifically, nuclear energy, which has undeniable assets, faces constraints. On one hand, is very competitive harmless greenhouse effect. From this point, it seems be an ideal candidate reach future objectives sustainability, availability acceptability. other its technology production — based fission remains imperfect generates risks for environment health. In respect, less desirable. Therefore, researchers turn today towards another type technique, fusion, project ITER founded. This worldwide interesting our analysis because, as technological revolution, takes into consideration all global challenges future, particularly capacity meet needs developing countries. It example par excellence successful international scientific collaboration oriented long-run ends that involve huge technological, economic political stakes. Focusing project, we thus have reconsider place in more demanding world. Considering magnitude efforts undertaken implement ITER, paper aims at analysing, detailed way, goals, matter.
