At the moment, the only functioning nuclear power plant in Iran is the first stage of the Bushehr NPP, built with Russian assistance.

Revolutions are messy things. Once underway, they get a life of their own. There is confusion and mistakes are made at the barricades. But once underway, they can’t be turned back; yesterday can’t be summoned rule tomorrow.

Senior nuclear regulators and industry leaders met for the first time under the IAEA’s Nuclear Harmonization and Standardization Initiative (NHSI) on 23-24 June to discuss roadmaps to accelerate the safe and secure deployment of advanced nuclear reactors, with a particular focus on small modular reactors (SMRs).

El-Dabaa - Egypt's first NPP - is to be built in the province of Matruh on the Mediterranean coast, about 300km north-west of Cairo.

Many of our companies, including energy companies, are operating in Indonesia. There is interest in developing the national nuclear power industry.

"A nuclear power generation project requires more than a decade for construction and involves operations for more than 60 years. South Korea is a reliable partner in terms of economic feasibility, safety, and ensuring the construction period," Lee said.

Under the JCPOA between Iran the P5+1 group of countries (the USA, UK, France, Russia, and China plus Germany) Iran agreed to limit its nuclear development in return for the lifting of sanctions.

South Korea’s new president, Yoon Suk-yeol, said on 22 June that in order to rebuild the nuclear industry that was “devastated by the previous administration”, the government will allocate KRW92.5 billion ($70 million) from the energy budget for the restoration of nuclear power generation capacity.

Romanian company Nuclearelectrica and NuScale will cooperate with the US Trade and Development Agency (USTDA) on a series of engineering and design activities and studies, as well further technical analyses of the Doicești site, a former thermal power plant site which has been identified as a potential location for the SMR plant.

Nuclear energy is both critical to meeting global environmental sustainability commitments and a key asset for global energy security.

Last Energy's SMR technology is based on a pressurised water reactor with a capacity of 20 MWe or 60 MWt.

Under the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, USD6 billion has been allocated to support the continued operation of existing US nuclear power plants under the threat of closure

Possible uses of the technology, beyond rockets, include establishing a permanent base on the moon, and the technology could be adapted to provide power in "challenging environments on Earth,

The Office of Nuclear Regulation is responsible for the regulation of the safety and security of nuclear installations in the UK. However, fusion reactors are not prescribed installations for the purposes of the Nuclear Installations Act 1965.

A single nuclear power plant has the potential to generate enough hydrogen to decarbonise the heating of one million homes or 40,000 hydrogen buses from a site no more than a few square miles in size, with technology that is available today.
