Canada's nuclear regulator has approved the construction of the country's first small modular reactor (SMR) at the existing Darlington Nuclear Power Station site which is just 58km from the Toronto CBD.
"The Darlington SMR will be the first in the G7, powering our province with clean, reliable, and affordable energy." - Hon. Stephen Lecce Ontario Minister of Energy and Mines.
Canada is just one potential partner country Australia could work with to develop our own nuclear industry to work alongside renewables to deliver net-zero by 2050.
