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.”
