Global Nuclear Plant Operations and Maintenance Services Market Growth (Status and Outlook) 2025-2031

The global Nuclear Plant Operations and Maintenance Services market size is predicted to grow from US$ 53890 million in 2025 to US$ 68410 million in 2031; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 4.1% from 2025 to 2031.

Nuclear plant operations and maintenance services are an important part of ensuring the safe, efficient and reliable operation of nuclear power plants.

Nuclear plant operations services focus first on safety. This includes conducting safety-related assessments, operational monitoring, and providing technical expert opinions on operating procedures and documentation. Compliance with national and international safety and reliability standards is essential, and regulators are responsible for monitoring the operation of nuclear power plants to ensure that the systems, structures and components of developers and operators meet safety requirements.

The daily operations of nuclear power plants include power production, reactor control, equipment maintenance, etc. Operators need to develop and implement detailed operating plans to ensure the stable operation of nuclear power plants.

Nuclear plant maintenance services are key to ensuring the long-term safe operation of nuclear power plants. Equipment in nuclear power plants needs to be maintained and replaced regularly or irregularly. Especially critical equipment with limited service life, such as instrumentation and control systems, reactor pressure vessels, etc. As equipment ages, problems such as reduced reliability and increased sporadic failure rates will occur. Therefore, timely maintenance and replacement are important measures to ensure the safe operation of nuclear power plants. Preventive maintenance is a method of preventing equipment failures through regular inspections and maintenance. It can help operators detect potential problems in advance and take measures to solve them, thereby avoiding the impact of equipment failures on nuclear power plant operations.

The continuous development of the global economy and the continuous increase in population have led to a continuous increase in the overall demand for energy. Nuclear power, as an efficient, stable and clean energy, plays an important role in meeting energy demand, thus promoting the development of nuclear plant operations and maintenance services.

From a regional perspective, Europe is the largest consumer of nuclear plant operations and maintenance services in 2023. Currently, the world's leading manufacturers include China Huaneng, Orano, SPIC, BWX Technologies, GE Hitachi Nuclear Energy, etc. In 2023, the top five manufacturers' revenue accounted for 15.89%.

With the enhancement of environmental awareness, nuclear power operation and maintenance services will pay more attention to environmental protection, reduce the generation and emission of radioactive waste, and promote the sustainable development of nuclear power plants. In the operation and maintenance process, actively use clean energy and energy-saving technologies to reduce carbon emissions and energy consumption in the operation and maintenance process.The continuous development of the global economy and the continuous increase in population have led to a continuous increase in the overall demand for energy. Nuclear power, as an efficient, stable and clean energy, plays an important role in meeting energy demand, thus promoting the development of nuclear plant operations and maintenance services.

In order to optimize the energy structure and reduce greenhouse gas emissions, governments around the world have formulated a series of policies to encourage the development of nuclear power, including financial subsidies and tax incentives, which have created a favorable policy environment for nuclear plant operations and maintenance services.

New materials, new equipment and advanced monitoring technologies have emerged continuously, improving the operating efficiency and safety of nuclear power plants, while also reducing operation and maintenance costs, and promoting technological progress and innovation in nuclear plant operations and maintenance services.
