Small modular reactors – a promising nuclear technology still under development – could offer reduced costs & faster construction compared to today’s nuclear power plants More on these reactors, their potential & challenges for bringing them to market from IEA’s Brent Wanner 👇 | International Energy Agency (IEA)

Compact Nuclear Reactor Powers an Entire Town for a Decade Without Refueling Engineers have developed a small modular nuclear reactor (SMR) roughly the size of a truck that can generate enough electricity to power an entire town for up to 10 years without refueling. Despite its compact size, the reactor delivers reliable, continuous energy with zero carbon emissions during operation. Designed for remote locations, disaster-prone areas, and future smart cities, this technology represents a major
