The South African Nuclear Energy Corporation SOC Ltd (Necsa) held a compulsory briefing session on its Expression of Interest (EOI), for a demonstration on the Small Modular Reactor (SMR) issued at the end of March and closing on 29 May 2026. The session was attended by 54 potential partners who represent 12 countries, including South Africa.

The Group CEO of Necsa, Loyiso Tyabashe said, “The briefing session held with the interested suppliers earlier today provided a platform to clarify technical, commercial and strategic aspects of Necsa’s SMR programme. It was quite encouraging to see the interest from nuclear designers and other institutions who are immersed in the development of nuclear technology for the advancement of humanity. Following the clarification process, Necsa will evaluate the submissions received by 29 May 2026 and prepare for the next step, which is issuing a request for proposals to the shortlisted organisations.”

Necsa Board Chairperson, Mr David Nicholls added, “Necsa is committed to ensuring that the SMR programme is inclusive of local industry players, so it was important to see a number of South African organisations in the briefing session today. We are committed to a transparent, and competitive process that is aligned with South Africa’s energy policies and our strategy as we seek to leverage local and global expertise through strategic partnerships.”
