South Korea’s Nuclear Success, Democratic Setbacks, and Centralized Energy Planning

  • Resumen

  • In the 11th installment of The Atomic Exchange Podcast, co-hosts Dr. Goran Calic and Michael Tadrous turn their attention to South Korea—a country that has quietly become one of the most successful nuclear builders in the world. With 25 reactors and an impressive track record of delivering projects on time, South Korea stands in stark contrast to the delays and dysfunction plaguing Western nuclear development. The conversation dives deep into how South Korea built up its nuclear sector, the influence of export-oriented industrial policy, and how a shift to democratic governance briefly derailed progress. They unpack the parallels with Germany and France, explore whether democracy inherently slows nuclear progress, and question whether centralized decision-making is a necessary evil for effective energy planning. Tune in for a nuanced and thought-provoking discussion on geopolitics, infrastructure, and what South Korea’s story means for the global nuclear renaissance.
