Brazil's Amazon and Nuclear Energy: The Strategic Value of Risk Assessment

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: Expanding access to energy in remote regions is one of Brazil's major contemporary strategic challenges. The growing energy demand, combined with the need for sustainable and low-carbon solutions, reinforces the interest in technological alternatives capable of providing energy in a safe, continuous manner and with minimal environmental impact. In this context, Small Modular Reactors (SMRs) — compact, modular nuclear reactors with higher levels of passive safety — are considered a viable alternative for energy supply.
