China and Russia solidified their positions as leaders in global nuclear energy development, with all new reactors constructed over the past five years relying on their designs.
As the US, Russia and China engage in a highly visible competition in developing advanced weapons systems, behind the scenes another contest is quietly taking place: the race to export civil nuclear reactors.
Nuclear reactors under construction in seven countries: China, India, Turkey, Egypt, Bangladesh, Iran, and Slovakia. For comparison, the US was constructing zero.
The global market for nuclear power could triple by 2050 according to projections from Third Way and the Energy for Growth Hub and, as a recent UxC report demonstrates, this represents an export opportunity for the U.S. nuclear industry that could be worth up to $1.9 trillion.
