Two provinces signed a memorandum of understanding to further develop small modular reactor technology.
The MOU provides the ability for Saskatchewan, New Brunswick and their utility crowns to formally collaborate on the development of SMR technologies for both provinces.
This includes the sharing of experiences, knowledge and successes on deployment plans, supply chain development, Indigenous relations, labour market development and regulations.
In 2019, Saskatchewan, Ontario and New Brunswick signed an MOU to advance SMRs in Canada, an agreement that Alberta joined in 2021.
