DGTES mapping of the SMR technoeconomic ecosystem
Analytical insights on the industrial ecosystem behind Small Modular Reactors: looking at economic competitiveness and security
Small Modular Reactors (SMRs) can play an important role in supporting energy-intensive industries. Their flexibility in being coupled with renewable energy systems and providing sustainable power can make SMRs an important resource to achieve the twin transition. The flexibility and affordability of SMRs have the potential to reduce energy access inequalities and provide power to remote areas. Their safety features can also help harmonize Member States’ and public opinion stances on nuclear energy. New analytical insights on key aspects of the SMR ecosystem are provided by the Digital Techno-Economic EcoSystem (DGTES) approach and can contribute to supporting the European comprehensive strategy on SMRs.
