[Point of view] Firm power, local value, industrial sovereignty : The European case for Small and Advanced Modular Reactors and the conditions behind the promise
Published on 02.11.2026
Firm, close to demand, able to supply heat to industry and to close the fuel cycle: Small and Advanced Modular Reactors (S/AMRs) promise more than megawatt-hours. But every one of these promises is conditional.
This Arthur Hunt Strategy study tests them against what projects actually deliver, identifies the condition each one depends on, and shows that they all rest on a single enabler: a European nuclear supply chain, built together. Essential reading to understand what Europe has to decide while the choices are still open.
Inside the study :
- Four S/AMR promises tested against real projects
- The conditions each one depends on, and the common foundation: a supply chain Europe only partly owns
- Financing, industrial mapping, joint regulatory reviews: the levers to build it together
