Staat straks in elk dorp een kerncentrale?
Met de torenhoge energieprijzen horen we steeds vaker over een oude bekende: kernenergie. En nu Europa in gaat zetten op kleinere kerncentrales, is het misschien haalbaarder dan ooit.
Is dit de comeback van kernenergie? - via @nosop3.nos.nl #SMRs

#SMRs - chicken-and-egg situation. Manufacturers are hesitant to ramp up production without a clear signal that advanced reactors will pan out. Investors, in turn, are leery of #nuclear reactors meant for mass production that rely on unprepared supply chains.

Opmeer: liever SMR dan zon? Miljoenenclaim en dreiging provinciale interventie Projectontwikkelaar TPSolar heeft de gemeente Opmeer officieel aansprakelijk gesteld voor een schadebedrag van circa 7,8 miljoen euro. Het gaat om de vertraagde besluitvorming en de uiteindelijke weigering van een vergunning voor een zonnepark nabij Hoogwoud. Volgens de ontwikkelaar is er sprake van

Ja, ist es nicht ein bisschen bedauerlich, dass man eine Technologie zur politischen Agenda macht? Ich meine, PVs bei ihrer Einführung, hatten nur 1–2% Betriebseffizienz und heute (Jahrzehnte später) bei 20–25 % liegen. Technologien wie #SMRs schlecht zu machen, ist nicht der richtige Weg. Sorry 🤷‍♂️

Een kleine kerncentrale in Hilversum? Nee dank je, zeggen deze actievoerders: ’Mensen weten niet eens dat dit gebeurt’ De gemeente Hilversum onderzoekt de mogelijkheden voor een kleine kerncentrale. Betogers liepen vrijdag door de stad om inwoners te waarschuwen voor de gevaren en kosten van zo’n kleine modulaire reactor.

The Heinrich-Böll-Stiftung EU | Global Dialogue invites you to an online discussion on the European Commission’s new strategy on small modular reactors (SMRs). At the occasion of the 15th anniversary of the Fukushima catastrophe, we will present a new analysis by researchers from the Technical University of Berlin discussing open questions in view of the development of this technology in the EU. The European Commission has given SMRs a prominent place in its 2025 Affordable Energy Action Plan. However, given the long road of SMRs towards potential technology readiness and the assumed high costs of electricity generation, experts question if these projects would ever supply any meaningful quantity of electricity to businesses and consumers. While EU policymakers and US big tech rush towards SMR technology with high expectations, our new analysis summarises the potential, the costs and open questions that should be part of the debate.

Small modular reactors, big dreams: Ontario’s nuclear pitch This story is part of a series called Shockwave: Rising energy demand and the future of the Great Lakes. The Great Lakes region is in the midst of a seismic energy shakeup, from skyrocketing data center demand and a nuclear energy boom, to expanding renewables and electrification. In 2026, the Great Lakes News Collaborative will explore how shifting supply and demand affect the region and its waters.

Ontario is betting big on small modular reactors to meet rising power demand — with billions in public funding and the first SMR in the G7 now under construction. But the technology is unproven and costs are soaring. Here’s what you need to know.
