Abstract: Energy is one of the most important elements of the global economy, being in the same time the basic unit of world economic development as a whole. In the energy mix, nuclear energy, more than any other type of energy, generated and will always generate a series of controversies. The energy system extends its applicability in many areas and, wherever is situated the obtaining of the finished product, it has direct consequences worldwide. Due to these considerations, in this field it is not possible a unilateral view. The division of energy in subdomains is difficult to do because of their interconnections, each element having a specific influence on the others. Although the notion of sustainable development is manifested increasingly stronger, economic issues involved in energy processes cause most countries to implement energy policies in such a way as to not sacrifice the balance against any of these items. The practice of many countries shows that every decision has an economic foundation that is never unheeded.
