North America Nuclear Decommissioning Market

North America Nuclear Decommissioning Market Size, Share: By Reactor Type: Pressurised Water Reactor (PWR), Pressurised Heavy Water Reactor (PHWR), Boiling Water Reactor (BWR), Gas Cooled Reactor (GCR), Others; By Strategy: Immediate Dismantling, Others; By Capacity; Regional Analysis; Competitive Landscape; 2024-2032

North America Nuclear Decommissioning Market Outlook

The North America nuclear decommissioning market size reached nearly USD 1.16 billion in 2023. The market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 5.2% between 2024 and 2032, reaching almost USD 1.85 billion by 2032.

 

Key Takeaways:

  • As per the US Nuclear Regulatory Commission, 22 nuclear reactors are being decommissioned in the US across 18 sites.
  • Pressurised water reactor (PWR) is expected to constitute a major portion of the North America nuclear decommissioning market share.
  • The United States of America is expected to dominate the market over the forecast period.

 

Increasing safety concerns surrounding the operation of nuclear power plants amidst geopolitical tensions are prompting the US government to shift towards renewable sources of energy for powering up its households and industries. The high affordability of alternatives like solar and wind energy has made this shift increasingly attractive for consumers and industrialists. This is expected to accelerate the North America nuclear decommissioning market expansion in the forecast period.

 

The automation of key inspection and maintenance tasks at nuclear sites has emerged as one of the key North America nuclear decommissioning market trends. With the integration of LiDAR lasers on robots in high-radiation environments, workers can map their way around relatively less hazardous areas and perform clean-up operations. This ensures occupational safety and reduces the risk of adverse occurrences on site.

 

The decommissioning of nuclear power plants involves the safe disposal of nuclear wastes and the removal of all radioactive materials on-site. Deferred dismantling is the preferred strategy for nuclear decommissioning in North America because it minimises the levels of radioactive contamination over a long period of time, which provides companies with an opportunity to access loans for other decommissioning activities. This also reduces the overall cost of decommissioning, thereby contributing towards the North America nuclear decommissioning market growth.
