NSI report addresses supply chain bottlenecks
A new report commissioned by the Nuclear Scaling Initiative, conducted by energy consultant Solestiss, and funded by the Bezos Earth Fund, identifies and recommends solutions to overcome current bottlenecks in the supply chain for advanced reactors.
Broadly speaking, the report recommends the repeated deployment of Gen III+ reactor designs to rebuild the foundation of domestic manufacturing, workforce, and qualification capacity.
