In 2021 Star submitted its concept design of it\u2019s Small Nuclear Reactor (SMR) to UJV Rez, a Czech Republic nuclear conglomerate for an independent analysis of its licensing, safety, manufacturing and economic feasibility in manufacturing the units.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
UJV Rez provides an independent perspective on SMR designs, offering an unbiased and objective evaluation. Their analysis helps in validating the design choices and ensuring that all aspects have been thoroughly considered. The independent assessment provided by UJV Rez adds credibility to the SMR design and instills confidence in stakeholders, including regulatory authorities, investors, and the public.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
