As the world advances toward decarbonization, industrial energy consumers are looking for solutions that go beyond renewable electricity alone. They are seeking reliable, high-temperature outputs created from sustainable (ie. non-fossil) energy sources. They are demanding flexible, always-on power. And, increasingly, they are turning to a promising innovation: Small Modular Reactors (SMRs). Unlike traditional nuclear power plants that are massive, centralized, and built primarily for the grid, SMRs are compact, factory-built, and scalable. These characteristics make SMRs ideal for industrial facilities seeking on-site energy solutions that offer both carbon-free electricity, process heat, and more. From chemical plants to data centers to water treatment facilities, industrial companies are exploring SMRs as a multipurpose energy source. The thermal output of an SMR can drive high-temperature industrial processes, fuel hydrogen production, power desalination plants, and even support district heating systems. But tapping into this potential requires more than just advanced nuclear technology—it demands a sophisticated approach to automation and control.
