Rwanda, Nano Nuclear Energy Sign Deal for Possible Small Modular Reactor Deployment

Subheading: Agreement Sets Framework for Collaboration on Introduction and Integration of SMR Technology

Paragraph 1:

The Rwanda Atomic Energy Board (RAE) has signed an agreement with American microreactor technology company Nano Nuclear Energy Inc. for the possible deployment of small modular reactors (SMRs) in Rwanda.

Paragraph 2:

The Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) establishes a framework under which Nano Nuclear will work alongside the RAEB to facilitate the introduction and eventual integration of SMR technology in Rwanda.

Paragraph 3:

The agreement was signed on August 14th and sets the stage for future collaboration between the two organizations in this field.

Additional Information:

• SMRs are a type of nuclear fission reactor that is factory-built and assembled in a variety of modules.
• SMRs are smaller and more modular than traditional nuclear reactors, making them easier and faster to build and deploy.
• SMRs have the potential to provide a clean and reliable source of energy for Rwanda and other countries.
