Oral Track 14: Nuclear Infrastructure and Enabling Environment for SMRs

Speaker

Mr Andrei Goicea (Nucleareurope)

Description

In recent years, the nuclear sector has started to regain visibility at EU level, mainly after the energy crisis but also due to the still ongoing geopolitical situation. In this context, nuclear in general and SMRs in particular have benefited from a series of enabling measures in recent legislative proposals such as the Sustainable Finance - Taxonomy and the Net Zero Industry Act. Likewise, the SMR deployment in the EU is now also supported by the European Industrial Alliance on SMR launched at the beginning of this year that aims at promoting the technology within future legislative proposals to be issued by the EU institutions.
The paper will dive into the recent and potentially upcoming legislative proposals and the impact they will have on the SMR development as from the early 2030’s.
