Overview
- Podemos urged the coalition to veto in the Mesa del Congreso the PP amendment that would remove definitive closure dates for nuclear plants, arguing it increases public costs through additional radioactive waste.
- Sumar reiterated its opposition to any delay of the nuclear phase‑out and said the parliamentary board cannot block amendments coming from the Senate, calling instead for parties to show their positions in a vote.
- Pedro Sánchez said the government is willing to study proposals to postpone closures if plant owners guarantee territorial safety and energy supply, remarks that intensified pressure from partners on the left.
- Plant owners have formally requested postponing the Almaraz shutdown to June 2030, a change from the previously scheduled disconnections in 2027 and 2028.
- The Mesa meets Tuesday to consider the Senate change, and the amendment is expected to go to a Thursday plenary debate per ABC, with PP counting on Vox and a possible Junts backing or abstention after similar votes advanced earlier this year.
