Small Modular Reactor (SMR) Market

Small Modular Reactor (SMR) Market

Pune, India - Exactitude Consultancy - December 2025
The global Small Modular Reactor (SMR) Market is gaining significant momentum, driven by increasing demand for clean baseload power, replacement of aging coal plants, remote/off-grid energy needs, hydrogen production, and enhanced energy security. SMRs-compact nuclear reactors producing 50-300 MW-offer improved safety, scalability, cost efficiency, and faster deployment compared to traditional nuclear plants. From powering remote mining sites to enabling hydrogen production, district heating, industrial steam, and carbon-free baseload electricity-SMRs represent the next major shift in global nuclear energy.
