Nuclear energy is the scientific achievement of the Iranian nation.

By developing atomic energy for peaceful purposes, you reach the nuclear option. There are no two atomic energies.

We should remember that there are nations which meet more than 30 to 60% of their power requirements through the nuclear power system.

Today, nuclear power provides 20 percent of power in the United States.

These experiments might make it possible to produce power by means of nuclear energy and radioactive elements. Unfortunately also perhaps atomic bombs.

We should be building more nuclear today.

I think, for me, nuclear is just the power, the devastation is very important to me.

There is not the slightest indication that nuclear energy will ever be obtainable. It would mean that the atom would have to be shattered at will.

Nuclear energy is a baseload - meaning it's power that you can run any time you want, day or night - and carbon-free.

I'm going to build a reactor, that's for sure.

Goodness, I know nothing about nuclear energy.

The world has today 546 nuclear plants generating electricity. Their experience is being continuously researched, and feedback should be provided to all. Nuclear scientists have to interact with the people of the nation, and academic institutions continuously update nuclear power generation technology and safety.

Nuclear fission

I would say that I was absolutely convinced of the possibility of our making an uranium engine, but I never thought that we would make a bomb; and at the bottom of my heart, I was really glad that it was to be an engine and not a bomb.

We need nuclear energy now, and we will need it in the future.
