Keep the Lights On: A Global Nuclear Power Debate

18:00 | Doors open for food and drinks order 開放入場及點餐 18:30 | Event begins 活動正式開始 Wherever you call home, energy policy always finds you: in your electricity bill, your city's climate targets, and in questions of national security. Germany switched off its last nuclear reactor in 2023 and has become increasingly dependent on imported gas and neighboring grids. Taiwan followed in 2025 - within a year, the debate over switching the reactors back on had already begun: A semiconductor industry that needs electricity like oxygen. A region exposed to forces beyond its control. A planet running low on patience. Join us to take nuclear power apart, without assuming where the argument should end. Take the controls yourself in a live simulation of electricity supply and demand, weighing cost against safety and carbon footprint. From there we look outward at how different countries have each arrived somewhere else entirely.
