Dear Member,

The US SMR and advanced reactor industries are set to provide the global energy market with many exciting new opportunities in the near future, however there are challenges that face these industries in order to remain competitive with other sources of energy.

High profile industry problem solvers have provided exclusive insight into their work in a set of short interviews with Nuclear Energy Insider.

Access your complimentary copy of the interviews here

These short Q&A’s will provide you with:

• The latest information from INL’s study on hybrid nuclear-renewables opportunities: and how they can ensure that owner/operators remain competitive on the energy market.

• The chance to understand the potential to use nuclear power plants for applications other than electricity generation to combat a challenging energy market.

• An overview of the similarities in exporting conventional light water reactor technologies to those of an SMR, and how the EXIM Bank plans to prepare for this.

• Market insight into the potential of SMR deployment in Canada, enabling you to understand the particular reactor types best suited to Canada and more.

You can also look forward to hearing from other leaders in the SMR and advanced reactor industries, such as NuScale, UAMPS and the director of the GAIN initiative in the near feature.

Thanks,

Ben

With the global Small Modular Reactor industry set to be worth up to £400 billion by 2035, there is considerable opportunity for the international supply chain to win contracts within the next generation of nuclear energy.

With the UK needing as much as 7GW of power from SMRs, U-Battery, NNL, University of Cambridge and ETI sat down to discuss the primary challenges to the commercial deployment of SMR’s within the UK market.

Find out what the UK must do to make SMRs a commercial reality according to the industry’s leading figures

Here’s just a quick snapshot of what they discussed:

• “Development and manufacture of these technologies in the UK will deliver value in terms of intellectual property, highly-skilled jobs and supply chain opportunities.” – Paul Harding, U-Battery

• “A decision is required now whether to begin 10 years of enabling activities which would lead to a final investment decision for a first commercially operated UK SMR.” – Mike Middleton, ETI

• “The international market could be as high as 85GWe by 2035, with a potential value of up to £400 billion, including existing and new nuclear nations.” – Andrew Sherry, NNL

I would love to hear any comments or questions you have on the SMR industry within the UK.

Many thanks,

John
