The Czech government has approved a Ministry of Industry and Trade roadmap that provides an overview of possible sites and investment models for the deployment of small modular reactors in the country, mostly at existing coal sites.
A government statement said based on the roadmap, SMR technology will be included in state energy and development policy.
The roadmap recommends speeding up the process of site selection and preparation so construction of the first SMRs can begin in the first half of 2030s.
