Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/1483596· OSTI ID:1483596

The U.S. Department of Energy’s Office of Energy Policy and Systems Analysis (EPSA) requested an assessment of global nuclear markets, including the structure of nuclear companies in different countries and the partnerships between reactor vendors and buyers. EPSA was interested in obtaining information on the competitive context of international sales of reactors and fuel services. The Idaho National Laboratory responded to this request with a plan for information gathering and assessment of global markets in several phases. The first phase researched global sources and developed a collection of information to assist in analyses of global market status and trends in services provided in conversion, enrichment, reactor design, construction and operation, and discharged fuel storage and reprocessing. This report summarized this first phase, including analysis conclusions about current global markets. Additional phases will address specific topics that are of particular interest to EPSA.
