In a world centred on short-term fixes, many of the traits that make nuclear energy a key player in the transition to a sustainable world are not properly valued and often taken for granted.
Nuclear energy can play a central role in post-COVID recovery efforts by boosting economic growth in the short-term, whilst also supporting, in a cost-effective manner, the development of a low-carbon, resilient and affordable electricity infrastructure.
Small modular reactors can complement large reactors by opening new markets and applications for nuclear energy – be it process heat, hydrogen production, or electricity generation for small or remote grids.
