Notes

Switzerland operates nuclear plants producing approximately 33% of its electricity and is evaluating SMR technology for post-2035 replacement of retiring capacity. Swiss utilities Axpo and BKW have engaged with multiple SMR developers. A 2024 Swiss federal report recommended keeping the nuclear option open. Switzerland is not an EU member but closely aligns with EU energy policy and participates in Euratom research programmes.
