Are renewables an alternative to nuclear power? An analysis of the Austria/Slovakia discussions
چکیده انگلیسی

Politicians and publics throughout Europe have different views on nuclear power and renewable energy sources. Countries such as Austria and Denmark which have no nuclear power are rather hostile towards this energy source, and at the same time view renewable energy sources as one of the solutions in curbing CO2 emissions. Other countries, such as Slovakia, which is less endowed in terms of renewables, view nuclear power as a electricity-generating source that can reduce dependency on fossil fuels and thereby CO2. This paper focuses on the confrontation between two nations with different sets of electricity policies, namely Austria and Slovakia. Of particular interest for this study include an evaluation of Austria's anti-nuclear policy towards its Slovakian neighbour and an analysis of Austria's attempts to promote renewable energy sources in both Austria and Slovakia. In conclusion, a number of recommendations are put forward with regard to how Austria's future energy dialogue with Slovakia should look like and what types of projects Austria should consider funding.
