Low uranium prices could undercut supply

摘要

World demand for uranium is projected to outstrip supply sometime within the next 15 years, and possibly as early as 2013, according to Ux Consulting Vice President for International Operations Jonathan Hinze. The forecast is based on a large expansion in nuclear power capacity worldwide; the high, base and low cases see global nuclear capacity rising from the current level of about 375 GW to 870 GW, 700 GW and just below 550 GW, respectively by 2030.
