Aspiring president Vice President Leni Robredo said she is open to discussions on the possibilities of utilizing nuclear energy in the country but affirmed that the focus remains towards moving away from fossil fuel dependence.

“It’s definitely on the table,” Robredo said during an economic forum on Friday, Jan. 21, when asked if her administration, if elected, is open to tapping nuclear power.

The presidential aspirant stressed that it is a “very contentious issue” that always comes with the discussion of proper safeguards and its environmental impacts. During the forum, Robredo said that she has been talking with various energy advocacy groups to discuss concerns on the energy supply in the country and the country’s commitment to the COP26, where the Philippines committed to become carbon neutral by 2050.
