In 2023, the United Kingdom was the largest exporter of nuclear reactors, except isotope separators, in Europe, accounting for a significant share of 73.62 kg. While Austria held a stable export level at 14.7 kg, the Netherlands followed with 8.32 kg. Countries like Poland, Hungary, and Ireland did not experience year-on-year growth, maintaining modest shares, whereas Sweden and Denmark exhibited impressive export growth, as seen in their 41.08% and 51.69% increases respectively. Other countries like Belgium witnessed a moderate increase, while France and Italy had minimal export contributions.
Future trends to monitor in European nuclear reactor exports include:
- The potential decline in market leadership by the UK should the current negative growth trend persist.
- Emerging growth opportunities in Sweden and Denmark, given their robust export upticks.
- Broader EU policy developments on nuclear energy, which could impact export dynamics.
