What does a sustainable nuclear future look like?
Finland may be providing an answer.
The country has taken another significant step towards operating the world's first deep geological repository for used fuel, following a positive safety assessment.
A milestone decades in the making, it highlights the importance of long-term planning and robust regulation in supporting the future of nuclear energy.
It also reinforces an important fact: nuclear is one of the few industries that incorporates long-term waste management and disposal planning into its regulatory and funding frameworks from the outset.
With a clear disposal pathway and relatively small waste volumes, responsible waste management remains a key strength of the sector.
