Newcleo has signed a memorandum of understanding with the UK's Nuclear Advanced Manufacturing Research Centre to collaborate on manufacturability, supply chain and development studies for its small modular lead-cooled fast reactor technology.
A study commissioned by the American Bureau of Shipping has explored the potential of advanced nuclear reactor technology for commercial marine propulsion, whilst a study led by UK-based innovative reactor developer Newcleo will consider the feasibility of nuclear applications to the shipping industry, including the firm's small modular lead-cooled fast reactor technology.
