Nuclear Power
Nuclear power plays a vital role in meeting the increasing global energy demand while reducing dependence on fossil fuels and mitigating climate change. It is a low-carbon source of reliable baseload electricity that can complement renewable energy sources and provide energy security. Mirion is proud to support nuclear power operators across the entire lifecycle of the plant, from new construction, to operations, outages, and decommissioning.
Solutions for nuclear power operators across the entire plant lifecycle — from new construction to decommissioning.
Nuclear Power Operations & Radiation Protection
Nuclear power plant operators successfully manage many radiation safety challenges during the plant's operating lifetime, including controlling and limiting personnel exposure, waste management, regulatory compliance, emergency preparedness, outage planning, and RCA access control. Ensuring the safety and reliability of these facilities requires a strong commitment to radiation safety and continuous improvement - which Mirion is proud to be a part of.
Reactor Safety & Control
A nuclear reactor is monitored using a combination of specialized instruments and control systems to ensure its safe and efficient operation. This monitoring is crucial for maintaining safety margins, optimizing reactor performance, and preventing accidents. Mirion's Reactor Instrumentation & Radiation Monitoring Systems help nuclear operators maintain reactor safety and peak operational performance.
Small Modular Reactors
Small Modular Reactors (SMRs) are poised to play an increasingly critical role in the global pursuit of sustainable, low-carbon energy solutions. By combining the benefits of nuclear power, such as minimal greenhouse gas emissions and high energy density, with modularity and scalability, SMRs have the potential to significantly enhance energy security and accessibility worldwide. Their smaller size and factory-based production processes enable faster construction times, reduced capital costs, and a level of flexibility unmatched by conventional nuclear plants. As the world grapples with the mounting challenges of climate change and energy demand, SMRs offer a promising solution for decarbonizing hard-to-reach sectors, supporting the integration of renewable energy sources, and providing clean, reliable power to remote and underserved communities. Mirion is committed to helping solve the radiation safety and operational challenges of SMR operators as they are poised to become a cornerstone of the global clean energy transition.
