In December 2024, the Indiana Office of Energy Development released a report prepared by Purdue University on Small Modular Reactor (SMR) Technology and Its Impact on Indiana. The report was developed with State Energy Program funds. Key recommendations outlined in the report included the importance of Indiana conducting feasibility studies, building partnerships, and prioritizing stakeholder engagement to ensure SMRs are able to integrate efficiently into the state’s energy portfolio. Additionally, the report recommended the state develop educational resources, review existing state requirements, investigate incentives, explore existing supply chain resources, and explore opportunities to derisk construction particularly at existing or retired coal plants. Overall, the report concluded that SMRs present a viable opportunity for the state to transition to a cleaner, resilient, and diversified energy future.
