Singapore conducts feasibility studies for advanced nuclear energy technologies

Matt MacDonalds Singapore has been appointed to conduct the study.

The Energy Market Authority (EMA) has announced plans to conduct a study to evaluate the safety performance and technical feasibility of advanced nuclear energy technologies, such as small modular reactors (SMR), based on their safety features, technology maturity, and commercial readiness.

Global engineering, development and management consultancy firm Mott MacDonald Singapore Pte Limited has been appointed to conduct the study.

However, the government said it still has not made a decision to deploy nuclear energy.

“It is important for Singapore to continue to build our capabilities and work with various experts to improve our understanding of nuclear energy, especially advanced nuclear energy technologies. Any decision to deploy nuclear energy will need to be carefully considered against its safety, reliability, affordability, and environmental sustainability in Singapore’s context,” the government said.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
