Small Modular Reactors (SMRs) are surging globally to meet rising clean energy demand, with 262 expected by 2040.
Rising global energy demand from industrial electrification, data centers, and clean energy goals is driving a nuclear resurgence, particularly through Small Modular Reactors (SMRs).
ABI Research projects 262 SMRs will be deployed worldwide by 2040, adding 42 gigawatts of clean energy capacity, with major growth expected in the 2030s.
SMRs offer scalability, faster deployment, enhanced safety, and suitability for powering data centers and industrial sites.
Key developers include Rolls-Royce, GE Vernova Hitachi, and startups like X-energy and NuScale, backed by government and private funding, including from tech companies.
Challenges remain, including lengthy regulatory and permitting processes, but with fusion still distant, SMRs are seen as a critical solution to meet future energy needs and prevent shortages.
