Long-term strategy calls for up to 10 new reactors in Canada
Canada has launched a Nuclear Energy Strategy, a long-term vision of its nuclear power potential that includes plans to deploy up to 10 new large-scale reactors in the country by 2040.
The June 22 announcement, along with ongoing projects at Darlington and Bruce Power, further confirm Canada's ambitions to expand its nuclear power presence not just domestically but also abroad. Four pillars stand at the heart of the country’s Nuclear Energy Strategy: new nuclear builds in Canada, maintaining its status as a top nuclear supplier and exporter, expanding uranium production, and continuing nuclear fission and fusion innovations.
The governance structure of ANS is overseen by a volunteer board of directors responsible for setting strategic direction, ensuring financial accountability, and upholding the Society's mission and vision. The board operates through the Society's bylaws and rules, with the support of Committees and the Executive Committee to guide operations and ensure compliance.
Elected leaders guide the strategic direction of ANS, represent the interests of our members, and keep us at the forefront of nuclear innovation and discovery.
