Europe Nuclear Decommissioning Service Market Forecast to 2027 - COVID-19 Impact and Regional Analysis by Reactor Type (Pressurized Water Reactor, Boiling Water Reactor, Gas Cooled Reactor); Strategy (Immediate Dismantling, Deferred Dismantling, Entombment); Application (Commercial Power Reactor, Research Power Reactor, Prototype); Capacity (Below 100 MW, 100 - 1,000 MW, Above 1,000 MW) and Country

Market Introduction

As a greater number of nuclear power plants are nearing the end of the operational timeline, the operators and the governments are planning to decommission the facilities, and this activity is increasingly becoming mainstream, thereby driving the nuclear decommissioning services market. In the recent scenario, the decommissioning of nuclear facilities is outpacing the construction of newer facilities across the major regions. According to the World Nuclear Industry Status Report (WNISR), during the mid-2018, 115 nuclear reactors have been decommissioned, and ~70% of the world’s 173 reactors that have been permanently shut down. These statistics showcase the demand for decommissioning services, which is catalyzing the nuclear decommissioning services market. The average lifespan of nuclear power plants is 30 years; however, with refurbishments, several numbers of facilities continue to operate for another 20–30 years. Since the majority of the governments are inclining toward the construction of newer nuclear facilities with advanced technologies, the focus toward decommissioning of older facilities is higher, which is increasing the involvement of decommissioning service providers in the industry.

Market Overview and Dynamics

The nuclear decommissioning service market in Europe was valued US$ 2.68 billion in 2019 and is projected to reach US$ 4.29 billion by 2027; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 6.2% from 2020 to 2027. The Italian power generation and transmission sector comprise of nuclear power plants, which generates and transmits only 8% of the country's overall electricity generation and transmission. The country had 4 reactors and has been decommissioning the reactors following the Chernobyl incident. Italy relies heavily on imports and is the world's second-largest net importer of electricity. Sogin S.p.A., a government-owned nuclear decommissioning service provider, has been engaged in dismantling and decommissioning several nuclear power plants in the country.
