The Open Group has released a whitepaper from the Industrial Advanced Nuclear Consortium detailing potential deployment scenarios for small and micro modular reactors. The document outlines operational requirements and energy demands for heavy industries looking to integrate nuclear power and process heat directly into their existing facilities and off-grid operations.

This initiative aims to bridge the gap between nuclear technology developers and industrial end-users by standardizing requirements for future projects. By aggregating data on energy needs and constraints, the consortium seeks to accelerate the commercial viability of modular reactors and facilitate deployment decisions for decarbonization efforts within the current decade.

The Open Group Publishes Industrial Advanced Nuclear™ Consortium's Inaugural Application Scenarios Whitepaper

The Whitepaper provides a blueprint on how advanced nuclear energy can be deployed across heavy industry

The Whitepaper, driven by IANC, an industrial end-user-driven organization, represents a significant step forward in the role of nuclear energy in relation to energy transition. Outlining real-world use cases where Small Modular Reactors (SMRs) and Micro Modular Reactors (MMRs) could be integrated directly into industrial operations, it focuses on sectors that are amongst the most difficult to decarbonize, including:
