The scaling challenge for SMR startups
SMRs have become one of the most closely watched frontiers in energy innovation. Their promise is compelling: faster deployment, modular construction, enhanced safety features, and the ability to bring nuclear power into markets and applications where gigawatt-scale reactors are impractical. For governments, investors, and utilities, SMRs represent both a cl
Unlocking nuclear’s potential in district heating, a strategic opportunity for Central and Eastern Europe
As Europe accelerates its decarbonization agenda, the energy transition is no longer focused solely on electricity. Heating and cooling account for around half of Europe’s final energy demand, yet remain one of the most carbon-intensive sectors. In Central and Eastern Europe, where district heating networks are widespread and heavily dependent on fossil fu
