Vahista dives into how images of three-eyed fish and other cartoons shape our fears about nuclear waste, even though the reality is much safer and well-managed.

Our survey of those with an actual background in nuclear science and technology shows that expert perspective is important for building a social license in Australia.

In 2025, the ANA surveyed its members, who are highly experienced nuclear professionals, to gauge 𝘦𝘹𝘱𝘦𝘳𝘵 𝘰𝘱𝘪𝘯𝘪𝘰𝘯 on nuclear energy deployment in Australia.
Here are some key themes that emerged from the open comment survey responses:

Our survey of those with an actual background in nuclear science and technology shows that experts see multiple role models for Australia’s nuclear deployment journey.
Canada (32%), France (22%), and South Korea (23%) stand out as leading examples to follow.
English
Nuclear investments pay off beyond the reactor itself, like how ITER boosted HTS magnet production.

This is supported by the fact that Australia is 𝗮𝗹𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗱𝘆 𝗲𝘅𝗽𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗶𝘁𝘀 𝗿𝗲𝗴𝘂𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗼𝗿𝘆 𝗳𝗿𝗮𝗺𝗲𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸 to encompass a naval nuclear propulsion program, so adding a framework for electricity from nuclear power would in our capabilities.

Nuclear also:
- Reduces the cost of backup generators
- Lowers auxiliary service expenses
- Minimises the opportunity cost of blackouts that hurt business and households

Australia can safely and effectively manage its nuclear waste, as it already does.

Our survey of those with an actual background in nuclear science and technology showed high support for SMRs, but openness to other reactor types.
With our small operating research reactor and plans for submarines, it seems like small has had a good head-start here.

In 2025, we surveyed our members, who are highly experienced nuclear professionals, to gauge expert opinion on nuclear energy deployment in Australia.
The results highlight that the main barriers are political and cultural, not technical or economic

Question: Is there a point in removing the ban on nuclear energy if it’s too expensive for us anyway?
Answer: Cost is not a reason to ban nuclear

Australia has safely operated research reactors for decades. We’ve developed radioactive waste solutions. We have a world class nuclear regulator. And we’re training a nuclear skilled workforce for AUKUS. Yet, we turn our back on nuclear power. It’s time to lift the ban.
