As Europe works urgently toward climate neutrality and energy security,
European Nuclear Energy 2026 (ENE26) will convene government, policymakers, regulators, utilities, technology innovators, decision-makers, market leaders, multilateral banks, contractors, developers, researchers, investors, and nuclear energy stakeholders to redefine nuclear energy’s value in enabling Europe’s net-zero future.
With nuclear energy excluded from most carbon market mechanisms today, the summit will focus on unlocking carbon credits and innovative financing models to scale up nuclear power - including fission, fusion and FNPPs.
How can carbon credit markets unlock the investment needed to scale nuclear energy for a net-zero Europe?
Held over 2 days, the summit will explore:
- How to integrate nuclear into EU Emissions Trading System (ETS) and voluntary markets
- Designing a carbon credit framework for SMRs and Advanced Reactors
- Leveraging World Bank, EIB and IMF climate finance to unlock new financial instruments
- Using MRV, blockchain and digital tools to verify avoided emissions
- New financial products: green bonds, blended finance, taxonomies and ESG metrics
- Accelerate deployment of next-generation nuclear technologies — from SMRs to fusion
