Abstract
The success of SMR technology will depend on the initial projects' ability to demonstrate economical construction without falling victim to the large cost overruns of nuclear projects both past and present. The remarkable tool and process evolution of recent years suggests a very favorable outlook for building SMRs on time and within budget. However, challenges remain, as evidenced by difficulties with current nuclear construction projects.
