The Danish government is considering lifting the ban on nuclear power development.

Danish Minister for Climate, Energy and Utilities, Lars Christian Lilleholt, stated on the 13th that the Danish government is considering lifting the 40-year ban on nuclear power development to enhance the country's energy security. If nuclear power is allowed, it would mean a major shift in the energy policy of this Nordic country. In an interview published in the Danish newspaper "Politiken" late on the 13th, Lilleholt revealed that the Danish government will analyze the potential benefits of new nuclear technologies such as small modular nuclear reactors and prepare to release a relevant analysis report next year.
