BRAND NEW FEATURES FOR 2013

In the past 12 months the rate of SMR development has rapidly increased with the first SMR licence being granted in South Korea, B&W and TVA being granted the first winner of the Licensing Technical Support Program and more utility support progressing throughout the globe. The 3rd Annual SMR Conference provides you with the most important information that will drive the small and advanced reactor community forward from 2013, including:

  • Exclusive utility panel session featuring TVA, Dominion, SCE&G and many more so you know the exact needs and requirements of the SMR end user
  • Detailed forecast of fossil and nuclear plant retirement and the utility view of replacing these facilities with SMRs
  • Full NRC update detailing how design specific review standards and licence fee amendments will combine to drive forward economic SMR programs
  • Details from senior DOE representatives to outline further funding opportunities for both LWR SMRs and new funding streams for advanced technologies

A must-do conference for those interested in learning about this very promising technology

WHY SMR? WHY 2013?

2013 is the year which will demonstrate the commercial values of SMR technology - as well as having international government support, a defined fiscal infrastructure and forward schedules for licensing and deployment. In the past 12 months alone

  • KINS licenced the S.M.A.R.T. reactor and KAERI have publicised their readiness for international export
  • In November 2012 TVA and B&W were awarded the US Department of Energy's Licensing Technical Support Program which will greatly accelerate progress at the clinch river site
  • EPA regulations set to remove up to 20% of the existing US coal plants resulting in the expanding business case for SMRs from 2013
  • New Department of Energy funding stages for LWR Development and new funding streams for small advanced reactors
  • New NRC guidelines allowing economical licensing fees and design specific standards to accelerate SMR development
  • More non-traditional nuclear markets including mines, steel mills, military bases, oil and gas programs, municipalities, heavy engineering sectors and many more seriously considering SMRs

As a result of this market activity the 3rd Annual Small Modular Reactor Conference 2013 is the most important event for any contractor with ambitions to win business over the crucial next few years and to secure their place in this lucrative market. This is because it is the only conference to bring the major stakeholders from the global SMR community to one location to discuss and provide solutions to the barriers to new small and advanced reactor programs.
