Bankability to Back End: Planning for the Full Advanced Reactor Lifecycle

Wednesday, August 26|3:30 pm – 4:15 pm

Educational Session|Advanced Nuclear

Financing the Advanced Reactor Ecosystem: Advanced reactor projects must bridge the gap between early-stage development capital and the large-scale financing required for construction and commercial deployment. This panel examines what investors, lenders, developers, and public-sector programs need to see at each stage, including technology readiness, customer commitments, risk allocation, project structure, and government support.

What you'll gain:

Learn what makes an advanced reactor project financeable; understand investor and lender expectations across development, demonstration, and construction stages; and explore financing structures, federal support mechanisms, and risk-management approaches that can help move projects toward bankability.

Who should attend:

Advanced reactor developers seeking financing, CFOs and financial planning executives, bankers and project finance professionals, infrastructure and energy investors, and utility finance teams supporting nuclear deployment. Working (Content Approved)
