TOKYO, Sept 10 — Japan needs nuclear power, the head of an electricity sector federation said today, adding that the industry would have a serious debate on energy policy with whoever becomes the next prime minister.

“We believe Japan needs nuclear power on the basis of current science and technology,” Kazuhiro Ikebe, the chairman of the Federation of Electric Power Companies of Japan , told reporters. “We will have a thorough and serious discussion with him and try to make him understand our stance,” Ikebe said, referring to what would happen if Kono were to become leader.

He said nuclear power plants dormant since the 2011 Fukushima disaster, that are deemed safe, could be restarted to help achieve a goal of carbon neutrality by 2050.
