AfD Kompakt, August 31, 2022.
Hopefully, it is not a newspaper hoax: The Economy Ministry
shall work up a statute which foresees the continued operation of the three
remaining nuclear power plants. A long overdue step – and even in the right
direction, which however does not go far enough. For the citizens and the
economy rightly expect from the Federal government that it provide for a favorable
and secure energy – and to be sure on occasions when no wind blows and the sun
does not shine.
The Federal government must stop the gas assessment,
undertake Nord Stream 2, withdraw the sanctions against Russia and set up a
secure supply by means of employment of diverse technologies as well as a
multi-faceted energy mix.
The AfD demands the re-organization of nuclear research
centers and a comprehensive participation in international nuclear research projects.
The AfD is for the installation of new, secure nuclear power plants so as to
avoid an energy shortage for industrial Germany and its citizens. Beyond that, the
AfD demands of the Federal government to join the “Generation IV International
Forum (GIF)” to move forward the construction of a demonstration reactor with a
liquid fuel technology (molten salt reactor, MSR) so as to create the
opportunity to test the use of thorium under real conditions in sustained
operation.
