Recommendation 45
45
Paragraph: 226
Communicate a clear financial model for initial SMR deployment, as CfD is unsuitable.
Recommendation
If a single supplier of SMRs were to be available, either through Government choice or following the Generic Design Assessment process, the CfD auction model will not be suitable. As part of a clear and specific strategy for SMRs, the Government should come to a view quickly on what financial model would be available for the initial deployment and communicate this clearly to developers.
