根據諒解備忘錄，Nano Nuclear Energy公司將提供技術援助、培訓和教育，以及建造數量不詳的小型模塊反應堆（SMR）和微型反應堆，盧旺達原子能委員會表示。
Construction of the SMRs and microreactors would take place in the "next few years", Nano Nuclear CEO James Walker told a press conference in Rwanda, foreseeing a "very smooth path towards a very developed civil nuclear programme".
