Market Overview:
The global nuclear facility decommissioning market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.8% from 2018 to 2030. The market growth is attributed to the increasing number of nuclear power plants across the globe and the subsequent need for their decommissioning. In addition, stringent government regulations pertaining to nuclear safety are also fueling the demand for nuclear facility decommissioning services. The pressurized water reactor (PWR) segment is expected to dominate the global nuclear facility decommissioning market during the forecast period, owing to its widespread use in commercial and military applications. The 100-1000 MW segment is projected to be fastest growing during the forecast period, owingtothe increasing demand for electricity worldwide. S., Canada and Mexico .
Product Definition:
Nuclear facility decommissioning is the process of removing a nuclear facility from service and returning it to a safe and environmentally sound state. The importance of nuclear facility decommissioning is that it ensures that nuclear facilities are safely removed from service and do not pose any environmental or safety risks.
Pressurized Water Reactor Decommissioning:
Pressurized water reactor decommissioning is a process used to safely and completely remove radioactivity from a nuclear facility. PWR or pressurized water reactors are used in various industries such as power generation, desalination plants, oil & gas production, etc. The process of removing radioactive materials from these facilities is called Decommissioning or decommissioning of the plant. This procedure is performed to comply with government regulations and industry standards after the working life of a particular plant has expired.
Boiling Water Reactor Decommissioning:
Boiling water reactor decommissioning and its usage in nuclear facility decommissioning market is a process used to safely remove radioactive material from a nuclear plant. In the boiling water reactors (BWR), the spent fuel is exposed to steam which drives an electric generator that produces electricity. The steam also drives turbines which power the plant’s electrical systems.
The purpose of BWR decommissioning.
Application Insights:
The market is segmented by application into below 100 MW, 100 - 1000 MW and above 1000 MW. The below 100 MW application segment dominated the global nuclear facility decommissioning market in 2017. This can be attributed to the low cost of electricity generation from nuclear power plants and high operating efficiency of such plants. Furthermore, government subsidies for installation of decommissioning fund are also a key factor driving the demand for decontamination services at an early stage in plant life cycle.
The decommissioning cost structure associated with boiling water reactors (BWR) is significantly higher than that of pressurized water reactors (PWR).
Regional Analysis:
The market in the Asia Pacific region is anticipated to grow at a significant rate over the forecast period. The growth of this market can be attributed to increasing nuclear power plant closures and growing demand for electricity generation from renewable sources. In addition, rising awareness regarding radiation safety and stringent government regulations are expected to drive the demand for decommissioning services in this region.
North America accounted for a major share of global revenue owing to early reactor shutdowns due to high levels of radioactive waste generated by these reactors, which is anticipated propel regional growth over the forecast period. Europe also contributed significantly towards global revenue generation as many countries there have already shut down their reactors thus reducing dependence on nuclear power plants, thereby driving regional growth over the projected period.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing government initiatives for nuclear facility decommissioning
- Growing awareness about the benefits of nuclear facility decommissioning
- Rising number of aging nuclear facilities worldwide
- Proliferation of new technologies and services in the market for nuclear facility decommissioning
- Growing demand from developing countries for safe and secure disposal of radioactive waste
