Africa needs to significantly increase its electricity production to ensure universal access to its expanding population. It also needs to achieve net-zero emissions by 2050. Small modular reactors (SMRs) offer a potentially accessible and sustainable solution, but financing and regulatory hurdles must be addressed for widespread adoption. Africa is in great need of energy: More than 40 percent of its population—approximately 600 million people—lacked access to electricity in 2022.

According to the 2022 World Energy Outlook of the International Energy Agency, the industry sector generates 45 percent of the total direct emission from end-users and it will be extremely difficult to reach net zero without finding solutions to assist in its decarbonization. Nuclear may be the solution, once small reactors are commercialized.
