On September 23, the PCCC Board, represented by President Bernhard Otterstein and Vice-President Areta Kempińska, took part in the Canadian Nuclear Energy Leadership Conference organized by the Canadian Embassy in Poland.
The Canadian delegation and 27 Polish companies took part in the conference and fruitful B2B meetings, insightful presentations, and plans for the development of nuclear and SMR reactors in Poland.
Participants had the opportunity to hear a comprehensive presentation from Paweł Pytlarczyk of the Ministry of Energy, outlining Poland’s plans for nuclear energy projects. One key insight shared was the high level of public support for nuclear energy in Poland, currently at 80%. By comparison, Canada’s support for similar projects stands at 50%, which is still considered significant.
This event reinforced the importance of nuclear energy as a sustainable and strategic solution for the future of both Poland and Canada as well as strengthened Polish-Canadian commercial ties in area of energy diversification.
