Urenco comment on Expert Finance Working Group report on financing small nuclear

08 August 2018 U-Battery News

Urenco read with interest yesterday’s report from the Expert Finance Working Group and will be reviewing the recommendations in detail.

In June, our micro-modular reactor technology – U-Battery – which we are developing with our consortium partners, successfully progressed to phase one of the Government’s Advanced Modular Reactor Programme.

During phase one of that programme we will produce a feasibility study which will make the commercial and technical case for U-Battery. 

We are delighted at the Government’s show of support for advanced modular technologies and look forward to demonstrating how U-Battery can help to address energy and decarbonisation challenges in the UK and overseas.
