Right For Malaysia's Energy Transition To Include Nuclear
馬來西亞的能源過渡應包括核能
| The Center for Market Education has welcomed Economy Minister Rafizi Ramli's words according to which Malaysia is set to adopt nuclear power generation as one of its energy sources in the coming years. CME said according to Rafizi, nuclear is a cleaner energy source compared to others, which could help the country achieve its goal of net-zero carbon emissions by 2050. This is in line with what CME argued with a policy paper published in February highlighting six recommendations for Malaysia's energy transition. These six recommendations include making the transition to nuclear energy, phasing out inefficient subsidies, uncap FiT policy, implementing regulatory sandboxes – which are partial deregulation initiatives that can spur innovation, improve consumer support and public awareness of energy issues. "These policies will help Malaysia achieve both economic growth and environmental progress; this is the twin benefit of an eco-modernist approach, as opposed to radical environmentalism common today that divorce both goals", explained Dr Carmelo Ferlito, CME CEO. The paper showed how nuclear power has the highest capacity factor (92.5%) among the green energies, with solar having the lowest (24.9%). The biggest advantage of nuclear energy is the energy efficiency it provides. Nuclear energy has by far the highest energy output of all alternatives. For comparison, a single pellet of uranium weighing six grams contains the same amount of energy as 17,000 cubic feet of natural gas, 149 pounds of oil or one ton of coal. Nuclear has a much higher energy output compared to its fuel intake. A great way to compare efficiency is to compare land use (square meter) per Mwh of energy generation. Based on the graph below it is very clear that nuclear energy requires the least amount of land per Mwh of power generation. |

| At the same time, CME said nuclear energy is one of the cleanest forms of energy in terms of emissions produced. When compared to other sources of energy, CO2 emissions per gigawatt/hour produced from nuclear energy are the lowest. This is an important point, because it illustrates the central feature of eco-modernism: the use of technology to decouple human development from its environmental impacts. Nuclear is a highly promising option in this regard, especially considering the latest progress made on fusion. |

| Therefore, "CME is glad to see the government committed to an energy transition platform which is non-ideological, but rather based on science and on the recognition that green sustainability must walk together with economic sustainability, making people better-off and not worse-off", concluded Dr Ferlito. |
| 市場教育中心歡迎經濟部長拉菲茲·拉姆利的話，表示馬來西亞將在未來幾年內採用核電作爲其能源來源之一。 CME表示，根據拉菲茲的說法，核能是一種比其他能源更清潔的能源，這將幫助國家實現到2050年淨零碳排放的目標。這與CME在2月發佈的政策文件中提出的六項馬來西亞能源轉型建議相一致。這六項建議包括過渡到核能、逐步取消低效補貼、解除Fit政策上限、實施監管沙盒——這是一種可以促進創新、改善消費者支持和公衆對能源問題的認識的部分放松管制的舉措。 CME首席執行官卡梅洛·費爾利托博士解釋道：「這些政策將幫助馬來西亞實現經濟增長和環保進步；這是生態現代主義方法的雙重收益，與今天常見的激進環境主義分開了這兩個目標。」該文件顯示，核電在綠色能源中具有最高的容量因子（92.5%），而太陽能的容量因子最低（24.9%）。 核能的最大優勢在於其提供的能源效率。核能在所有替代能源中擁有最高的能量輸出。爲了比較，一個重達六克的鈾顆粒含有與17,000立方英尺天然氣、149磅石油或一噸煤相同的能量。核能的能量輸出遠高於其燃料攝入。 比較效率的一個好方法是根據能源生成每Mwh的土地使用（平方米）進行比較。根據下面的圖表，很明顯，核能每Mwh的發電需要的土地面積最少。 |
|
| 與此同時，CME表示，核能在排放方面是最潔淨的能源形式之一。與其他能源相比，來自核能的每千瓦時產生的二氧化碳排放量最低。這是一個重要的點，因爲它說明了生態現代主義的核心特徵：利用科技將人類發展與其環境影響脫鉤。在這方面，核能是一種非常有前景的選擇，尤其考慮到在聚變方面取得的最新進展。 |
| 因此，"cme很高興看到政府致力於一個非意識形態的能源轉型平台，而是基於科學以及認識到綠色可持續性必須與經濟可持續性一起走，使人們更富裕，而不是更貧困"，費爾利托博士總結道。 |
