Abstract: The exponential growth in population requires a parallel increase in the total electrical energy to feed all loads with electrical energy. Diversity, independency of resources and global warming call for installing renewable and nuclear energy plants.. Where there are many renewable energy sources that can be used in Libya, including nuclear energy; Yet nuclear power with its many attractive features is not used at all. This study presents the energy resources available in Libya and reviews the main challenges and opportunities in the field of nuclear energy. At the end of this paper some conclusions are mentioned.
