European Union Orders Stress Tests for Nuclear Plants

Events in Japan the last few days has caused the EU (European Union) to order nuclear plants tested in member countries. The 27 nation members will begin testing plants to see how well they would hold up under natural disasters such as the earthquake in Japan. Germany has already moved to switch off seven older reactors for the moment, with one of them being taken off-line permanently.

Many nations in the EU have been working on alternative energy sources, and the current events may spur even more research and development in this area.
