Location study for nuclear power plants and technologies

This report analyzes location conditions for nuclear energy projects, including large power plants, small modular reactors, extensions of existing sites, fuel-cycle infrastructure and modernization programs. It assesses critical siting criteria: high-voltage grid access, cooling water availability, geological stability, safety, security, land availability, proximity to industrial electricity demand, supply-chain capacity, skilled workforce availability and local acceptance. The study compares regional advantages, regulatory constraints, permitting timelines, political risks, environmental requirements and deployment models for existing sites versus new-build locations. It helps utilities, industrial groups, investors and public stakeholders prioritize deployment zones, reduce execution risks and structure nuclear projects aligned with security of supply and decarbonization objectives.
