- A look at SMRs for Australia -- ANS Nuclear Newswire
The 36-page report, written by Australian nuclear energy advocate Ben Heard, takes a look at three of the most advanced SMR designs currently undergoing regulatory approval: NuScale’s Power Module, GE-Hitachi’s BWRX 300, and Terrestrial Energy’s Integral Molten Salt Reactor
- Minerals Council of Australia looks at SMRs - Nuclear . . .
The Minerals Council of Australia (MCA) on 6 October released a new report, “Small Modular Reactors in the Australian Context”, which offers an overview of SMRs, their potential role in Australia and likely operating costs
- Small Modular Reactors – Frequently Asked Questions - ATSE
Some media outlets have reported that it will be possible for Australia to procure SMRs in the 2030s Is this correct? Based on developer announcements and regulatory processes, it is possible that several prototype SMRs may be licenced, commissioned and built in OECD countries by the mid-2030s
- SMR – Small Modular Nuclear Reactors in Australia - Earth Sci
In order for Australia to build and maintain its own SMRs and not be reliant on foreign powers : have transitioned from full-scale prototypes to ongoing commercial SMRs delivered using well-established domestic manufacturing facilities and robust supply chains
- Small modular reactors should be part of Australia’s energy mix
The MCA today released the Small Modular Reactors in the Australian Context (updated 2022) report written by one of Australia’s leading nuclear experts, Dr Ben Heard, providing a timely overview of SMRs, their potential role in Australia and likely operating costs
- Small nuclear reactors come with big price tag: report
The calls for nuclear power in Australia have shifted from building large-scale plants to advocates arguing for SMRs as a cleaner alternative to fossil fuel generation The Federal Government’s Technology Investment Roadmap had a watching brief on this technology
- Opportunities and challenges for future deployment of SMRs in . . .
• SMRs can be a potential game changer in combatting climate change and energy security in Vietnam in the next decades • Sustainability assessment of potential candidate SMR technologies and possible deployment scenarios for Vietnam using the ASENES tools and INPRO methodology is being planned
- Nuclear SMRs, by Grahame Elder - Australian Democrats
For some years Australia has been developing the innovate nuclear waste technology ‘Synroc’, which provides a matrix for nuclear waste disposal, but waste from SMRs will be greater and potentially more difficult to dispose of than waste from larger nuclear facilities Waste disposal and siting of nuclear facilities will continue to pose
- Fact Sheet: Do small nuclear reactors (SMRs) make sense in . . .
There currently are three operating SMRs worldwide – two in Russia and one in China – with a fourth under construction in Argentina Costs for all four have been three to seven times as high as originally expected
- SMRs #39;ideal fit #39; for Australian market, report finds
SMRs are an "ideal fit" for the Australian energy market, the report finds, citing their enhanced safety, lower cost than large-scale nuclear reactors or equivalent energy production methods, configurability, and lower waste production than current reactors
