WHAT IS WNIC-SMR Europe 2027

Europe has moved from strategy papers to steel and fuel. The question is no longer whether Europe will build SMRs — but who executes, who finances, and who fuels them.


The first firm decisions are landing — from the UK's Wylfa programme to first projects in Poland and Romania, with the EU's SMR Strategy driving fuel sovereignty. 2027 is the year Europe moves from blueprint to baseload.


The 5th World Nuclear SMR & Advanced Reactor Congress convenes 300 senior leaders — regulators, developers, utilities, supply chain, fuel and finance — for two days of benchmarking and deal-making on what decides delivery:


- Making first-of-a-kind projects bankable
- Rebuilding nuclear-grade manufacturing
- Securing sovereign fuel & HALEU
- Aligning cross-border licensing
- The advanced reactors coming next


The room where Europe's next wave of SMR deployment decisions get made.

WHY YOU CAN'T MISS

  • Europe's Flagship, Global Reach: The only congress built around Europe's SMR & AR build-out — drawing developers, utilities, financiers and regulators from North America, Asia, the Middle East and beyond.

  • Substantive, First-Hand Content: First-hand updates from Europe's leading projects, plus three tracks barely covered elsewhere: fuel sovereignty, nuclear-grade manufacturing, and financing the build-out.

  • Unmatched Networking: Pre-scheduled B2B matchmaking across two days, an invitation-only Roundtable Power Hour, and 300+ senior peers (50%+ C-suite/VP/Director) from 10+ countries.

  • Innovation on Show: Cutting-edge advances in SMR and advanced reactor technologies — modular construction, AI-driven tools and fuel-cycle breakthroughs — spotlighted through the Innovation Showcase and live demonstrations.

  • Strategic, Business-Driven Agenda: Real solutions to first-of-a-kind challenges, bankable financing models, and the pathways accelerating European and global deployment.

HOT ISSUES

  • Policy & Regulation

  • EU SMR Strategy and COM/2026/117, harmonised cross-border licensing, and the completed UK GDA as Europe's reference case for national deployment.
  • Finance & Bankability

  • Bankable models—RAB, CfD and the GBN successive-development approach—with EIB, EBRD, national wealth funds and private capital solving FOAK-to-NOAK risk allocation.
  • Flagship Projects & Global Case Studies

  • Rolls-Royce SMR at Wylfa, EDF's Nuward, BWRX-300 in Poland and NuScale in Romania—benchmarked against Darlington and the pace-setters in North America and Asia.
  • Demand & Offtake — Data Centres, AI & Industrial Heat

  • Hyperscaler–nuclear PPAs, industrial buyers under ETS/CBAM pressure, and the offtake structures that make Europe's first SMR projects bankable.
  • Technology & Innovation

  • Advanced reactors and AMRs—LFR, MSR, HTGR, SFR and microreactors—powering hydrogen, industrial and district heat, and Europe's fast-growing AI/data-centre demand.
  • Supply Chain & Industrial Ecosystem

  • Rebuilding nuclear-grade manufacturing—RPV forgings, ASME capacity, modular fabrication and SME participation—turning LOIs into the firm orders that deliver Europe's first fleets.
  • Fuel Cycle & Waste Management

  • Sovereign, de-Russified HALEU and enrichment capacity, recycling and back-end economics, plus Europe's pioneering deep geological repositories for safe spent-fuel solutions.
  • Digitalisation & Public Trust

  • AI, digital twins and robotics bending the cost-and-schedule curve on FOAK delivery, while strengthening regulator acceptance and public confidence.
