Why Europe’s Nuclear Moment Matters Now
Global attention is firmly fixed on Europe’s civil nuclear renaissance. Government commitment, private capital, and industrial capability are aligning at pace. Countries across the continent are rapidly advancing their energy portfolios, scaling up infrastructure, and collaborating to secure energy independence and meet ambitious net-zero targets.
Key developments shaping the market include:
- Poland: Polskie Elektrownie Jądrowe (PEJ) advancing the country’s first gigawatt plant at Lubiatowo-Kopalino with the Westinghouse-Bechtel consortium, alongside Orlen Synthos Green Energy (OSGE) pursuing a fleet rollout of GE Hitachi BWRX-300 SMRs.
- Great Britain: Great British Energy – Nuclear (GBEN) pushing to quadruple capacity by 2050 through EDF’s flagship construction at Hinkley Point C and Sizewell C, alongside Rolls-Royce SMR selection in the domestic SMR tech competition.
- Czechia: Utility ČEZ Group launching its first Small Modular Reactor (SMR) programme at the Temelín nuclear site in partnership with Rolls-Royce SMR, while expanding long-term capacity at the Dukovany plant.
- Sweden: Vattenfall and project developer Kärnfull Next pioneering multi-reactor deployment and commercial SMR initiatives following sweeping legislative overhauls, including strategic exploration with Rolls-Royce SMR.
- France: Energy giant EDF steering a massive domestic scale-up via the planned construction of six next-generation EPR2 reactors and advancing its proprietary Nuward SMR design.
- Slovakia: Utility operator Slovenské elektrárne strengthening regional baseload power and clean exports through the successful integration and scaling of the Mochovce Nuclear Power Plant units.
- Slovenia: National energy company GEN Energija steering the landmark JEK2 expansion project at the Krško site, supported by cross-border technical partnerships.
- Finland: Teollisuuden Voima Oyj (TVO) leveraging Olkiluoto 3’s high output, while nuclear-technology innovator Steady Energy accelerates its LDR-50 reactor programme to supply reliable, zero-combustion district heating networks.
- Bulgaria: State enterprise Kozloduy NPP-New Build executing an engineering contract with Westinghouse and Hyundai Engineering & Construction to construct new AP1000 Units 7 and 8.
- Hungary: The new government planning a multi-vendor SMR deployment programme to secure up to 10 modular units.
This marks a defining era for nuclear in Europe, one shaped by delivery, scale-up, and long-term strategic intent.
What Is Nuclear Strategy | Europe?
Nuclear Strategy | Europe is a high-level, commercially focused conference bringing together senior leaders from across the pan-European civil nuclear ecosystem.
The audience includes:
- Reactor developers, technology vendors, and utility operators
- European government departments, policymakers, and international regulators
- Global investors, institutional funds, and financial institutions
- Engineering, procurement, construction (EPC), and infrastructure firms
- Fuel cycle, waste management, and decommissioning specialists
- The wider European nuclear supply chain
Hosted in Gdansk at the spectacular Olivia Star Top and moderated by journalist Hannah Vaughan Jones, the event provides a neutral platform for cross-border strategic discussion and meaningful commercial engagement.
What the Programme Covers
The agenda spans the full nuclear project lifecycle across the continent, including:
- European national policies, EU taxonomies, and cross-border regulatory alignment
- Financing models and international private capital mobilisation
- SMRs, AMRs, and advanced nuclear technology deployment
- Licensing, compliance, and mitigating delivery risk in multi-national projects
- Pan-European supply chain readiness and capacity building
- Demand forecasting, industrial electrification, and grid integration
- Fuel supply resilience, enrichment security, and nuclear waste strategy
The focus is practical, strategic, and forward-looking, centred on delivery and market opportunity.
Who Should Attend
This is a must-attend event for organisations operating in, supplying to, or investing in the European civil nuclear sector.
Whether you are shaping policy, financing projects, delivering infrastructure, or positioning your organisation within the regional supply chain, Nuclear Strategy | Europe offers the insight and connections needed to operate at the forefront of a rapidly evolving market.
