In the period from the end of July to the middle of the last decade of September 2023, a block of questions devoted to the issue of nuclear energy was included in the regular survey of programme Our Society. Two batteries of questions were included in the survey, through which citizens' opinions on certain characteristics and risks associated with the production of electricity through nuclear fission were examined on an eleven-point scale.
The majority of citizens are inclined to the opinion that nuclear energy makes it possible to ensure a stable supply of energy, makes it possible to produce energy at a low cost, contributes to measures against climate change and is environmentally friendly.
The prevailing opinion among the Czech public is that nuclear energy is one of the safest methods of energy production.
The Czech public is rather skeptical of the opinion that nuclear energy is a transitional energy production technology that will soon be surpassed.
The Czech public sees the greatest risk in connection with nuclear energy in possible misuse or damage to the nuclear power plant in a result of a terrorist attack or war.
