Mike speaks with Will Shackel, Founder of Nuclear For Australia, about the timeline for Australia to adopt nuclear power.

Nuclear law expert Helen Cook suggests a reactor could be operational in 10-12 years if Australia follows global best practices, including setting up regulations and community engagement.

The UAE, with no prior experience, achieved nuclear power in 13 years.

Australia, with decades of experience in research reactors and a strong regulatory framework, could achieve nuclear power within a similar or shorter timeframe.
