NAAREA SAS

NAAREA conçoit et développe des micro-générateurs d’énergie décarbonée à sels fondus et neutrons rapides, de la taille d’un container maritime, pouvant être déployés au plus près de consommateurs industriels dans le monde entier. La technologie innovante repose sur un réacteur à sels fondus produisant de l'énergie à partir de combustibles nucléaires usagés (4ème génération). Elle permet de produire une énergie sure, abondante, pilotable, décarbonée et décentralisée, pour un coût inférieur à celui du charbon ou des autres combustibles fossiles. En changeant de paradigme, NAAREA a pour vocation de proposer à nos sociétés une énergie à la fois durable, sûre et accessible pour tous, laquelle favorisera l’atteinte des 17 Objectifs de Développement Durable fixés en 2015 lors de la COP21.

Response to Future development and deployment of Small Modular Reactors (SMRs) in Europe

27 Nov 2025

We welcome the Commission's commitment to strengthening the European Union's strategy on SMRs. SMRs represent a strategic technology for the European Union and align closely with the objectives set out in the Green Deal Industrial Plan as well as the forthcoming Industrial Accelerator Act. They contribute directly to Europes competitiveness and strategic autonomy. At a time when global momentum is accelerating, particularly in China and the United States, the European Union must urgently reassess its strategy. Its industrial autonomy, innovation capacity, and standing in global competition depend on it. To remain competitive and promote the emergence of a European solution, the European Union must adopt a structured vision and ensure an adequate level of support : - Set an explicit and ambitious nuclear strategy - Fully mobilise European instruments, ending the exclusion of nuclear power from certain key funding programmes, strengthening synergies between different European programmes and funds, and leveraging mechanisms such as the PIIEC - Increase the Euratom fund allocation and place innovation at its core, supporting new SMR and AMR concepts, new uses (such as industrial heat) and advanced fuel cycle technologies. - Adapt the criteria for future calls for projects to encourage scaling up: economic competitiveness, operational flexibility, real capacity for industrialisation. - Build a robust European nuclear ecosystem by supporting pilot projects and demonstrators, developing testing capabilities, revitalising the supply chain and establishing a harmonised European framework and adapted to the development of these solutions. The European Union must also consider developing a European system for reprocessing spent fuel, which is currently often considered waste despite its energy potential, particularly thanks to molten salt technologies.
