Womens Energy Network Houston : Nuclear Energy: Financing, Advancing Technology & Delivering at Scale

Nuclear energy is entering a new era, driven by growing demand for reliable power, advances in technology, evolving investment models, and the need to execute complex projects at scale. This panel brings together experts across finance, technology, and project execution to explore what is shaping the next generation of nuclear energy, from advanced reactors, fusion and innovative fuel cycles to the critical minerals and infrastructure needed to support them.

Panelists will examine what makes nuclear projects financeable, how emerging technologies are creating new opportunities, and what it takes to move a project from concept and capital formation through licensing, construction, commissioning, and operation. Drawing on real-world examples, including the UAE’s Barakah nuclear plant, the discussion will highlight practical lessons in project delivery, risk management, and execution.

Whether you work in energy, finance, engineering, operations, policy, or another discipline, this conversation will provide a clear and accessible look at where nuclear energy is headed and what its evolution could mean for the broader energy industry.
