Abstract
In brief, this report is intended to stimulate debate around our future power sources. The results suggest that nuclear investments are not necessary (at least not in the next 15 to 25 years), nor are they cost-­effective based on latest cost data. Gas options should be explored more intensively and hydro projects from the region should be fast-­tracked.
