<p>The Government has considered the potential for molten salt reactor technology
to contribute to the UK’s energy mix. In 2014 Innovate UK funded a study examining
the feasibility of developing a pilot scale reactor for six molten salt reactor designs.
In 2015 the Government commissioned the Techno-Economic Assessment of Small Modular
Reactors (SMRs), to which a molten salt reactor developer contributed evidence. There
are currently a number of molten salt reactor vendors participating in the UK SMR
Competition and Government officials have met with them to discuss their proposals.</p>
