The Home of New Nuclear

Global energy demand is projected to increase by 50% by 2050, placing new nuclear technologies firmly in the spotlight. With more than $8 billion invested in Small Modular Reactors (SMRs) since 2024, industry stakeholders must move quickly to build viable business models, form execution-ready partnerships, and accelerate deployment.

Executive Orders targeting 400 GW of nuclear capacity by 2050 raise the stakes even higher. Achieving this goal requires immediate coordination across financing, regulation, supply chains, and technology development—there is no room for delay or missteps.

Reuters Events: SMR & Advanced Reactor 2026 is the global meeting point for new nuclear, bringing together more than 750 senior leaders from utilities, technology providers, financiers, policymakers, and regulators to turn ambition into execution.
