Navigate Nuclear: Small Steps Toward Big Power

Nuclear power is a long-term, nation-building investment, exemplified by the UAE's 13-year development timeline, which sets a high standard. Other nations like Vietnam and Bangladesh illustrate the varied trajectories in nuclear planning, with some projects stalling or progressing slowly over decades. The emergence of small modular reactors (SMRs) presents a potential solution to traditional nuclear construction challenges.
