"Questions 39 to 44 will be answered in writing.
Question No. 45 by Bart Staes ()
During a debate on 25 January 2005, Prof. Sir Chris Llewellyn Smith, Chairman of the Consultative Committee for the Fusion Programme, said that nuclear fusion could be generating power commercially in 40 years' time, provided that a heavily subsidised programme was adopted. The 7th Framework Programme allocates more funding to nuclear energy (fission and fusion) than to renewable energy. Yet the European Council considers that by 2020 greenhouse gas emissions must fall by 15-20% in relation to the 1990 level. Moreover, the Commission predicts a worldwide rise in employment in the renewable energy sector, which should be providing several million jobs by 2020.
Is it desirable, as part of climate and employment policy, to change the emphasis of the research and development budgets from nuclear energy towards renewable energy, and does the Commission have specific plans for this?"@en1
