What are Volt's political goals? / Other political subjects

Nuclear energy in Denmark

Vi skal ændre vores holdning til Atomkraft - Volt siger JA til atomkraft!

In 1985, the then minister for Energy stated that: "it is unwise (...) to refrain from adopting a particular energy technology at some point in the future (...) [N]uclear can bring great environmental, economic and security of supply benefits."

We believe it is time to repeal this law and with the new taxonomy from the EU it makes sense for the Danish government to back research into new technology.

  • Repeal the law that prohibits nuclear energy from the Danish energy mix.

  • Strengthen research in new generations of nuclear power plants. Such as molten salt, small modular reactors, plus advanced nuclear fusion- and fission concepts.

The 5+1 Challenges

Volt has defined 5+1 fundamental Challenges that need to be tackled in each European country and in Europe as a whole.

Why 5 + 1 Challenges?

The 5 Challenges are basically the same for every country, but their implementation can be adapted on the national level to take into account local realities.

The +1 Challenge – our proposal to reform and strengthen the EU – is identical across all our national programmes.
