While none of them is a perfect fit for construction procurement, they all have certain synergies with a potential marketplace for Platforms and it is worth exploring them.. Amazon.Significant parts of the assembly process can be done by non-nuclear construction supply chain, much more quickly, and decoupled from the nuclear parts of the building.
This all means that a wide range of coal plant fleet owners will now have access to a cost-effective, non-risky, speedy solution for replacing coal.A wide range of reactor manufacturers will have access to a significantly increased and different range of clients.
Interesting large scale de-risked investment opportunities will become available, in companies that develop and deliver the constituent parts of the overall solution.This will become an attractive proposition for communities, to keep jobs, attract other investment and create a better local environment..
