To bring clean power to more Canadians, the Government of Canada has committed to working with the provinces and territories to enable deployment of small modular reactors (SMR). The Government of Canada demonstrated its continued support for SMRs in Budget 2022, stating “Support to develop this technology can position Canada as a clean energy leader; support the decarbonization of provincial electricity grids in places like New Brunswick and Saskatchewan; facilitate the transition away from diesel power in remote communities; and help decarbonize heavy emitting industries”. 15 SMR project funding annoucements to date as of May 14th, 2025.
