As Canada works toward net-zero emissions, small modular reactors (SMRs) will play a key role as they are more cost-effective, faster to deploy, and better-equipped to power remote or off-grid locations.

GE Vernova Hitachi Nuclear Energy (GVH) is delivering the world's first commercial, gridscale SMR at the Darlington New Nuclear Project (DNNP) in Bowmanville, Ontario, along with Ontario Power Generation, Aecon and Atkins Réalis.
