Global energy demand is projected to surge 50% by 2050, putting new nuclear in the spotlight. Stakeholders must act fast to build strong business models, forge robust partnerships, and execute projects efficiently to accelerate deployment and unlock multi-billion-dollar returns.
There is no room for missteps. Executive Orders targeting 400 GW of nuclear capacity by 2050 are looming, and quadrupling today’s output demands coordination – the industry must tackle critical hurdles in financing, supply chain resilience, FOAK risk, regulation, and technology without delay.
