18for0

The Dáil is set to consider the Electricity Regulation (Removal of Nuclear Fission Prohibitions) Bill 2026 potentially ending Ireland's 25 year ban on nuclear power.

With grid demand nearing capacity and electricity bills increasing, the case for SMRs has never been stronger.

Hopefully another step towards nuclear power in Ireland.

An end to Ireland’s ban on nuclear energy to be debated at the @FineGael ard fheis this weekend.

One of our 18for0 volunteers, Matthew Donoghue, will be giving a talk on why Ireland should consider nuclear power to the University of Galway, Engineering Society. It will take place on Wednesday the 4th of November at 1pm.

Please do come along, if you are free to attend.

UK and Wales Green party members have voted to end the party’s opposition to nuclear power

The motion, removes a “blanket opposition to nuclear fission” and instead commits the Green party of England and Wales to assessing nuclear projects alongside other low-carbon technologies

There are currently ~40 BWRX-300s under order in Europe.

@gvhnuclear CEO "A standard design, combined with a predictable and efficient regulatory environment, allows us to apply common technology, licensing experience and supply chain capabilities".

All of this reducing cost.
