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.

Advanced reactor designers, many of whom plan to use high-assay low-enriched uranium (HALEU), were disrupted following the recent events in Ukraine. However, the U.S. has been making progress towards establishing a domestic uranium supply and HALEU production capability. This panel session will feature updates from the uranium and advanced reactor industries, DOE, and NRC.
