A Collaborative Framework for Accelerating Advanced Nuclear and Small Modular Reactor Deployment

The document outlines a collaborative framework to scale advanced nuclear and small modular reactor (SMR) deployment. It highlights a COP28 commitment by 22 countries to triple global nuclear capacity by 2050 and emphasizes the need for public-private partnerships to modernize regulations, build supply chains, and improve project bankability for applications in heavy industry, data centres, and transport.

• At COP28, 22 countries pledged to triple the world's nuclear power capacity by 2050, a commitment subsequently supported by 14 major banks and further countries.
• Small modular reactors (SMRs) and advanced nuclear technologies are identified as cost-effective, carbon-free energy solutions suitable for transport, data centres, and heavy industry heat and power needs.
• Scaling these technologies requires collaboration across the nuclear ecosystem to enhance bankability and the creation of public-private partnerships to modernize regulations and develop the necessary workforce and supply chains.
