The technology offers diverse uses, including electricity, district heating, hydrogen production, and water desalination.
There is an urgent need for a harmonized licensing and regulatory framework across the EU to allow for mass production.
Developing a robust, EU-based supply chain is essential to ensure strategic autonomy and reduce dependence on imported uranium.
