Israel looks to develop nuclear energy
National Infrastructure Minister Uzi Landau announced Israel's interest in developing nuclear power at an international nuclear energy conference in Paris.
Construction of such a plant would draw new attention to Israel's nuclear activities.
Israel is widely believed to have a stockpile of nuclear weapons. But it has never acknowledged or denied that.
Landau's office says no specific plans to set up a nuclear power plant have been drawn up.
The idea of generating nuclear energy has been floating around for years.
In 2007, then-Infrastructure Minister Binyamin Ben Eliezer said he intended to submit a plan to build a nuclear power plant in Israel's southern Negev desert.
