May 1, 2023--Written by Daniel Graeber for Industrial Info Resources (Sugar Land, Texas)--Decarbonization will remain largely out of reach in the power sector without nuclear energy, and trends are pointing to the emergence of smaller and cheaper reactors, analysts say.
Industrial Info is tracking 249 nuclear power units under development globally, with a combined capacity of more than 220 gigawatts. Of that, only around 10% of those units are planned for the U.S. energy sector for a combined 4.3 gigawatts of power.
