Building on the success of Roadmaps to New Nuclear 2024, ministers, senior government officials and industry representatives convened to share recent experiences, deliberate on best practices and chart a collaborative path toward delivering new nuclear energy construction at the scale and pace required to meet the growing global expectations for nuclear energy.
NEA analysis highlights that meeting global net zero targets necessitates a tripling of installed nuclear capacity by 2050. Concurrently, nuclear new build has become a top priority in several OECD and NEA member countries, which now face significant challenges, in part due to workforce issues, construction delays and cost overruns, fuel supply security and regulatory contexts. The high-level conference convened senior government officials and industry executives to address challenges of preparing for nuclear new build and share recent experiences to pinpoint solutions that deliver new nuclear construction at the scale and pace required to meet national targets.
