Nuclear power plant construction, long-term plant operation and decommissioning all offer potential multi-billion dollar markets over the next two decades, according to a newly released supply chain report from the World Nuclear Association.
With nuclear power generating worldwide revenues of about $300 billion a year for electricity utilities, The World Nuclear Supply Chain Outlook 2035provides a market-oriented view of challenges and opportunities under three scenarios. In the reference scenario, the number of nuclear reactors grows from 444 operating reactors, as of July 2016, to 462 by 2025, and 547 by 2035.
