Since the 1950s, Argentina pursued nuclear energy and technological development programs. It was also suspected of achieving a high capability of producing material suitable for nuclear weapons. With the fall of the military regime in the 1980's and implementation of nuclear confidence-building agreements with Brazil, long-time nuclear competitor, Argentina began the transition into non-proliferation, brining the nuclear program under civilian support.

The report – Analyzing Nuclear Power in Argentina – by Aruvian's R'search, explores the importance of nuclear power in today’s world, with Section One being dedicated to Understanding the Basics of Nuclear Power. The report looks at the basics of the nuclear industry that is, how a plant works, analyzing and understanding the fuel cycle, the various components which are involved in the working of a nuclear power plant, and much more. Economics, issues and barriers, and other such factors are also explored in-depth in this report.

Aruvian’s offering includes a complete analysis of the Argentinean Nuclear Power Industry, including an analysis of the nuclear power stations in Argentina, the major Argentine players in nuclear power, and much more. Industry profile, industry developments, technological developments, non-proliferation developments, Uranium fuel cycle developments, and lots more information is included in this research report. This research offering from Aruvian is a comprehensive A to Z guide on Argentina’s nuclear power industry.
