The analysts forecast the global nuclear powered naval vessels market to grow at a CAGR of 5.77% during the period 2017-2021.

Global Nuclear Powered Naval Vessels Market 2017-2021, has been prepared based on an in-depth market analysis with inputs from industry experts. The report covers the market landscape and its growth prospects over the coming years. The report also includes a discussion of the key vendors operating in this market.

One trend in market is replacing highly enriched uranium in naval reactors. Uranium is the most important element in the nuclear reactor. It is the uranium that constitutes the isotopes of Uranium-235 (U-235) that undergoes nuclear fission reaction and splits one atom into two, creating energy. The splitting of a single U-235 atom can release roughly 200 million electron volts (MeV). U-235 is found in about 0.7% of uranium found naturally and is well-suited for producing nuclear power. For ages now, many nuclear reactors have been using highly enriched uranium (HEU) in nuclear reactors. HEU has over 20% of U-235 and is primarily used in nuclear weapons and nuclear reactors, whereas low enriched uranium (LEU) has less than 20% of U-235.
