Small Modular Reactor Market Size and Forecasts (2021 - 2031), Global and Regional Share, Trends, and Growth Opportunity Analysis

MARKET OVERVIEW

Nuclear reactors with a power output of less than 300MWe are small modular reactors (SMRs). SMRs have many advantages over traditional bulk nuclear reactors, including their smaller size and faster construction times. High production rate can be achieved because an SMR is fully assembled in a factory using module fabrication. Small Modular Reactors are still in the early stages of development. Only NuScale's Power Module, GE-BWRX Hitachi's 300, and Terrestrial Energy's Integral Molten Salt Reactor are currently in the advanced regulatory phase. SMRs can be installed underground or as a floating nuclear power plants. Modular reactors are primarily used to generate electricity, but they are also used in the desalination of seawater and process heating. SMRs can be installed underground or as a floating nuclear power plants. Modular reactors are primarily used to generate electricity, but they are also used to desalinate seawater and process heating. SMR designs promise energy that is affordable, safe, viable and does not emit greenhouse gases.

IMPACT OF COVID-19 ON SMALL MODULAR REACTOR MARKET

The COVID-19 has slowed investments in small modular reactor technology and threatens to stifle the industry's progress toward commercialization. In the short term, the impact is most significant on the uranium supply side, as several mines and nuclear fuel cycle facilities have shut down due to health concerns. These reductions have taken place in many major uranium-mining countries, including Kazakhstan, Canada, and Namibia, which produce about two-thirds of the world's uranium. COVID-19 has also had an impact on reactor design and construction schedules. Small modular reactor design, licensing, and construction delays, combined with a drop in electricity demand, could negatively impact.
