01What is being requested

The setting up, execution and evaluation of simulations for small modular reactors (SMRs) to increase the knowledge base of stakeholders across five specific themes.

On the way to a climate-neutral Netherlands in 2050, the cabinet has the ambition to make electricity production in our country CO2-neutral by 2035 at the latest. To achieve this, the cabinet is relying on nuclear energy, among other things. The 2021 coalition agreement contained plans for the preparatory steps for two new nuclear power plants and for keeping the nuclear power plant in Borssele open longer. The 2024 Outline Agreement focuses on two additional nuclear power plants and SMRs. For the two new power plants to be built from the 2021 coalition agreement, the cabinet has chosen conven

13Frequently asked questions

What is meant by the 'virtual realization' of SMRs within this assignment?
'Virtual' refers to a simulation of the realization of Small Modular Reactors (SMRs), and not the actual physical realization itself. This also includes the lessons that can be drawn from the executed simulations.
What is the goal of program line 1 within the simulations?
The goal of program line 1 is to increase the knowledge base and meet the information needs of stakeholders regarding five identified themes. Through practice-oriented simulations, bottlenecks are mapped to accelerate the arrival of concrete initiatives.
What is the focus of program line 2 in this program?
Program line 2 focuses on investigating the potential of SMRs for the Dutch energy system. This is done through studies into potential opportunities and clarifying preconditions, such as the ultimate authority of the governing body.
Which themes are covered when building knowledge through the simulations?
The simulations contribute to the collective knowledge building of stakeholders on specific themes, including energetic integration, spatial integration and the value chain.
