Abstract

This literature review article discusses the nuclear energy policy model as an alternative energy to support national defence. Nuclear energy has great potential as an energy source that can reduce dependence on fossil fuels whose availability is increasingly scarce. However, the use of nuclear energy also has risks that must be managed properly, such as nuclear accidents and the risk of terrorism. Several countries have developed their nuclear energy programs with the aim of meeting domestic energy needs and also as a national defence strategy. However, the development of this nuclear energy program also poses challenges in terms of security and safety. This article discusses the nuclear energy policy model that has been implemented in countries such as the United States, Russia, France, and Japan. In addition, this article also discusses the role of international institutions such as the International Atomic Energy Agency in overseeing nuclear energy programs and ensuring the security and safety of their use. This article also mentions several critical issues related to the use of nuclear energy, such as nuclear waste management, accident risks, and potential terrorism risks. Therefore, the development of a nuclear energy program must be carried out carefully and must pay attention to security, safety, and environmental aspects. In conclusion, the nuclear energy policy model must consider all related aspects, including technical, economic, social, political, and environmental aspects. In this case, the role of international institutions such as the IAEA is very important in ensuring the safe use of nuclear energy and in accordance with international standards.
