Fleet-scale deployment key to cutting SMR costs in Europe, study finds
Original: New study finds fleet-scale deployment key to reducing small modular reactor (SMR) costs in Europe
A new study from the Clean Air Task Force concludes that deploying small modular reactors at fleet scale is essential to reducing their costs in Europe. The finding suggests that building reactors in large, standardised programmes, rather than as one-off projects, is what would allow the technology to become cost-competitive and support Europe's low-carbon energy plans.
Why now: Interest in small modular reactors is growing as Europe weighs nuclear power's role in decarbonisation and debates the technology's real costs.
