Small Modular Reactor Market: Detailed Insights on Upcoming Trends 2023-2032 | Key Players: Brookfield, Fluor Corp

WILMINGTON, DE , UNITED STATES, August 23, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Small modular reactors have smaller footprints and as they are prefabricated in factories, constructing them takes less time and cost. In addition, SMRs can be readily installed in brownfield sites in place of decommissioned coal-fired plants. The small modular reactor market was valued at $5.8 billion in 2022, and is estimated to reach $13.4 billion by 2032, growing at a CAGR of 8.7% from 2023 to 2032.

Primary differences in small modular reactors (SMRs) in comparison with larger nuclear power plants are their low power output (typically below 300 MWe per unit), modularity, and integrated design. Older generations of nuclear power plants are large and require huge amount of capital and construction time. Moreover, installation location of nuclear reactor is far away from large power grid system, which led to increase in cost. Hence, setting up a nuclear reactor is not feasible in remote locations, thus paving for the development of smaller nuclear reactors.

Thus, retrofitting is possible in the case of SMRs. With rise in emphasis on achieving political and technological solutions to climate change, many experts in the global community are turning their focus to virtually emissions-free power produced by nuclear reactors. Therefore, continuous development of small modular reactors (SMRs) offers a potential opportunity to overcome many hindrances presented by larger nuclear power plants, including high costs, complex supply chains, large physical infrastructure, and unsuitability in harsh environments, such as the Arctic. However, hazards around the safety of nuclear energy and more focus on wind and solar energy generation are key hindrances to the global small modular reactor industry.

The abovementioned factors will provide small modular reactor market opportunities for the further development in the forecast period. The small modular reactor market scope is segmented into reactor type, connectivity, deployment, power rating, location, application, and region. On the basis of reactor type, the market is segmented into heavy water reactor (HWR), light water reactor (LWR), fast neutron reactor (FNR), and others.

On the basis of connectivity, the market is bifurcated into off-grid and grid-connected. On the basis of deployment, the market is bifurcated into single module power plant and multi module power plant.

On the basis of power rating, the market is segmented into up to 100 MW, 101 to 200 MW, and 201 to 300 MW. On the basis of location, the market is bifurcated into land and marine.

By application, the market is segmented into desalination, power generation, and industrial. Region-wise, the small modular reactor market growth is analyzed across North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and LAMEA.
