Abstract

Concerns and fears about nuclear, both those originating from public and government perceptions, are examined in this paper. The NPP (NPP or PLTN) is a new energy in Indonesia; therefore, rejection is bound to happen. An overview of the work of NPP and the development of the latest fourth-generation nuclear reactor technology shows high security and safety features. A balanced and scientific study is carried out on issues that arise from the general public’s perception of NPPs, related to accident issues, radiation issues, waste issues, and social issues. Social issues related to nuclear issues are sunset technology and the NIMBY (not in my backyard) syndrome. There is no reason for people to be afraid of nuclear. The measurement of public acceptance is carried out by analyzing data from various countries, supported by the results of a questionnaire in Indonesia, showing that there is always resistance to NPPs Indonesian are ready to accept NPPs because more than 60% agree with NPPs.
