Rosatom, Russia’s state-owned nuclear energy corporation, is projecting a significant expansion of its international partnerships, a move signaling growing global interest in nuclear power as a clean energy source. The company anticipates a surge in demand for its advanced nuclear technologies, including small modular reactors (SMRs) and floating nuclear power plants.
This push comes at a time when many nations are seeking to diversify their energy portfolios and reduce carbon emissions to meet climate change goals. Rosatom’s strategy focuses on building new power plants, providing fuel cycle services, and developing new reactor designs. The company has a strong presence in countries across Asia, Africa, and Latin America and is actively pursuing new projects. This international cooperation is viewed as key to accelerating the global transition to sustainable energy systems.
