Nuclear
Nuclear reactors generate electricity through nuclear fission, where atomic nuclei split to release energy. They have evolved from early first-generation models to advanced third-generation designs with improved safety and efficiency. There also new, Small Modular Reactors (SMRs) that offer compact, flexible options for future power generation. Nuclear from fusion is still a long time from commercial applications.

The United Nations Comtrade database provides detailed trade statistics by product and trading partner. Imported and exported products are classified under the Harmonized Commodity Description and Coding System (HS system), used uniformly by most customs authorities around the world. Based on the latest update of the HS system and data available in UN Comtrade, you can find below the relevant commodities related to this technology, including their HS codes and full descriptions.
We have classified these technology-related commodities into three groups: Midstream (chemical and material inputs of technology components), Downstream (fully assembled components or products), and Waste/Recycling (including recycled or waste products and components). Commodities are further arranged according to the relevant technology components.
