With recent advances in small modular reactor technology, interest in nuclear power for merchant ship propulsion and for floating nuclear power stations is re-emerging. ICS is pleased that revision of the international regulations governing nuclear merchant ships and floating nuclear power stations is underway. However, the legislative landscape from this sector is complex, and a clear understanding of the technology’s potential depends on understanding the interrelationships among regulatory bodies and the processes and timelines for regulatory development.

Join our panel of international experts as they shed light on the regulatory processes and frameworks ahead.
