Meet Western Hemisphere Decision-Makers on Advanced Nuclear Energy

The U.S. Trade and Development Agency will host a Business Briefing with private energy developers, industry, regulatory officials, and other decision makers from Latin American and Caribbean countries in the early stages of civil nuclear energy development (Colombia, Ecuador, El Salvador, Jamaica, and Paraguay) to establish relationships with U.S. nuclear energy and related technology companies. Delegates will provide an overview of current and planned development projects and network with participants showcasing state-of-the-art U.S. technology and best practices across the full civil nuclear value chain. Key topics will include: Small Modular Reactor (SMR) and microreactor technologies; supply chain development and local content strategies; safeguards, security, and nonproliferation; regulatory standards and licensing pathways; effective planning, financing, and risk allocation; workforce development and education exchange; civil nuclear applications for industrial sectors (including hydrogen, desalination, and process heat); and strategies for leveraging existing infrastructure.
