From fragmentation to fleet: A European blueprint for coordinated SMR deployment

This study compares fragmented national projects with multi-country, coordinated, standardized deployment of SMRs in terms of the levelized cost of electricity (LCOE). The report’s central conclusion is that the EU can capture a substantial part of the economic and industrial value of SMRs if a suitable size of the program is organized as a coordinated fleet, rather than as a succession of independent projects.

Decision points for Southeast Asia as it weighs a nuclear energy era

The first nuclear energy movers in Southeast Asia will set the tone not only for how nuclear resources are developed in their own country, but also for the region as a whole. In a paper published by the Hinrich Foundation, NSI’s Ross Matzkin-Bridger explains how four consequential choices could determine whether nuclear energy becomes a problem-solver or a problem-maker for the region.

Europe’s heatwaves are testing nuclear plants. What does it mean for nuclear energy in a warming climate?

Fact Sheet

Europe’s heatwaves are testing nuclear plants. What does it mean for nuclear energy in a warming climate?

As extreme heat and drought put pressure on energy infrastructure across Europe, this explainer breaks down what recent nuclear power disruptions actually mean: why some European reactors reduced output during the heatwave, how cooling-system design, water availability, and environmental protection limits affect nuclear plant operations, and what these events tell us about designing and operating nuclear power plants in a changing climate.

Weighing the US case for nuclear energy exports

In a paper published by the Hinrich Foundation, NSI's Logan Mintz explains how the United States has a window of opportunity to play a key role in global nuclear energy development with its design expertise on small modular reactors, strong safety record, and non-proliferation culture.
