UK and US Forge Landmark Nuclear Partnership to Accelerate Clean Energy Development
NUCLEAR
Ahead of President Trump's state visit to the UK, a significant agreement known as the Atlantic Partnership for Advanced Nuclear Energy was established between the UK and US. This collaboration aims to expedite the process of building new nuclear facilities by reducing licensing times and bolstering the development of small modular reactors (SMRs).
The initiative is expected to create thousands of jobs, enhance energy security, and support the UK's goal of achieving a clean energy future. Key projects include a joint development agreement for multiple advanced modular reactors in Hartlepool and a microreactor at London Gateway.
