(MENAFN- GlobeNewsWire - Nasdaq) Delray Beach, FL, Jan. 17, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The global Nuclear Power market size is expected to grow from USD 38.84 billion in 2024 to USD 44.71 billion by 2029, at a CAGR of 2.9% according to a new report by MarketsandMarketsTM. Nuclear power is produced through the energy released during nuclear fission. In nuclear power plants, electricity is generated by harnessing this process, where heavy atoms such as uranium-235 split when struck by a neutron. This splitting trigger a chain reaction, releasing more neutrons and significant heat. The heat is then used to produce steam, which drives turbines connected to generators, ultimately producing electricity. The major factors driving the market growth of the nuclear power market include various driving factors such as many governments view nuclear power as a strategic constituent of their energy policy, and provide subsidies, tax incentives, or direct investment to build up nuclear projects. For example, some countries like China, Russia, and France have long-term plans to expand their nuclear power capacity. In addition, governments also set regulatory frameworks that ensure the safe development of nuclear energy. Similarly, Volatile and rising prices of fossil fuels such as oil, gas, and coal also make nuclear energy even more appealing as a cost-competitive alternative. Since fuel is needed in only small amounts in nuclear plants, uranium price volatility does not significantly affect the general energy costs.

Power Generation is expected to be the largest segment in the nuclear power market during the forecast period
Power generation application is expected to account largest market share during the forecast period. Nuclear power plants produce enormous amounts of electricity uninterruptedly and thus are the choice option for increased energy production based on increasing urbanization, industrialization, and technological development. Their baseload capability to produce stability and reliability in power is essential, especially in emerging economies where electricity consumption keeps rising. Since the energy generation from wind and sun is intermittent, a high output by nuclear power ensures constant energy generation while reducing dependence on fossil fuel as energy needs expand more globally.
