It is the latest signal that he is planning to give the green light to a new generation of atomic power plants in the UK.
At the annual Franco-British summit in Paris, Mr Blair and French President Jacques Chirac agreed to set up a bilateral nuclear forum to bring together ministers, business and experts from either side of the Channel.
The move will be seen as further confirmation that the Government's upcoming energy review will pave the way for the construction of a dozen or more power plants to replace the UK's ageing reactors.
