flag Namibia plans to build nuclear power using small reactors, boosting energy access and diversifying its uranium economy.

flag Namibia is advancing its nuclear energy plans through international collaboration and adherence to IAEA standards, aiming to improve energy security and diversify its uranium-driven economy. flag At the 2026 World Economic Forum, National Planning Commission Director General Kaire Mbuende highlighted the country’s 2025 Nuclear Industry Strategy, which includes regulatory reforms, creation of a national nuclear institute, and focus on small modular reactors. flag With less than 60% of its population having electricity access and heavy reliance on imported power, Namibia seeks to leverage its status as Africa’s largest and world’s third-largest uranium producer to develop domestic nuclear power, while working with African partners to share knowledge and overcome early-stage challenges.
