Panel-Globalizing Nuclear: Building Capacity and Collaboration
Tripling global nuclear energy capacity by 2050 demands bold, coordinated action across countries and industries. In this panel, experts from diverse sectors will share how their organizations contribute to this ambitious effort. They will discuss strategies for helping new nations build nuclear capacity and emphasize the importance of international collaboration and support. Panelists will explain how vendors compete for nuclear contracts and expand their global reach. Panelists will also outline national strategies and preparations for scaling up nuclear energy. While most near-term projects center on fission, panelists will also explore fusion’s potential role, highlighting the progress, opportunities, and challenges. Together, they will showcase the dynamic, multi-layered approach required to achieve this global energy transformation.
