Italy Approves Nuclear Power Revival After 40 Years

Italy's Senate gave final approval to a government bill that clears the way to build new nuclear power plants, ending a ban in place since the aftermath of the 1986 Chernobyl disaster. Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni said the commitment had been kept, while minister Pichetto called it a historic day for Italy. The legislation also sets up a role for the state nuclear company Sogin in the planned revival.
