Latest Red Book stresses need for boosts in uranium development
The latest edition of Uranium 2024: Resources, Production and Demand, commonly known as the Red Book, reports that current uranium resources are sufficient to meet low- and high-growth nuclear capacity needs through 2050 and beyond, but that further development of resources is still required. Even if nuclear capacity remains stable at 2050 levels through the end of the century, the report noted that cumulative demand “could exceed the current identified uranium resource base of nearly 8 million tonnes by the 2080s under the low-growth demand scenario and by the 2110s under the high-growth demand scenario outlined in this edition.”
For a limited time, enjoy a lowered paywall and open access to the 52nd Annual Buyers Guide. This recently published worldwide nuclear directory lists more than 600 companies who supply or provide at least one of the 475 products or services being utilized throughout the nuclear field. Published as a special 13th issue of Nuclear News magazine, in addition to being delivered to the entire American Nuclear Society membership, a print copy is delivered to the Procurement Director/Supply Chain Manager at every nuclear utility plant site in the United States.
If your company is performing or seeking work within the nuclear industry, please make sure you appear within this directory—as there is no charge to be listed. After reviewing the Directory of Suppliers Section (pages 123-152, sorted by country), if your company is not listed—we invite you to join our vendor database and Create a new Company Listing for 2022 today!
Looking beyond the Buyers Guide, Nuclear News is published monthly. Each issue includes feature stories on areas of particular importance to the worldwide nuclear community. Upcoming issue themes include: Instrumentation & Controls, Health Physics and Isotopes & Radiation, Vendor/Contractor Profile Issue, Probabilistic Risk Assessment, Plant Maintenance & Outage Management, Decommissioning & Decontamination, Game-Changing Leaps. If any of these topics align with your area of expertise, we invite you to Submit a Feature Article about your new innovations or technologies, or how a recent project improved an efficiency, reduced expense, or solved an existing problem.
Also, since the magazine accepted its first advertisement in 1960, Nuclear News continues to proudly partner with hundreds of nuclear companies and organizations every year to help keep the worldwide nuclear community and future workforce informed about products, services, conferences and exhibitions, academic programs, training courses, or employment opportunities.
