The Canadian Space Agency is seeking information from Canadian industry, academia, research institutions, utilities, and other interested stakeholders on Canadian technologies and capabilities relevant to lunar microreactors and enabling technologies. The RFI aims to obtain a broad, evidence-based view of Canada's existing strengths, technology maturity, facilities, supply chains, partnerships and development pathways; respondents may address a complete system, one or more subsystems, specialized research or testing capabilities, or a potential consortium role, and Canada is not assuming a single Canadian entity would design and deliver an end-to-end lunar microreactor system. This RFI is intended to gather information only and does not constitute a solicitation, funding opportunity, or commitment by the Government of Canada; information received may inform future CSA space exploration programs, technology development, technology demonstrations, procurement strategies, and international collaborations related to lunar surface power systems.
