Unlocking Nuclear & SMRs in Asia: Regulation, Finance, and Supply Chain Readiness

Asia is rapidly emerging as the world’s most dynamic growth market for nuclear energy, driven by rising electricity demand, industrial expansion, grid reliability needs, and the urgency to achieve net-zero targets. As countries across the region accelerate decarbonisation, nuclear power is gaining renewed momentum as a proven, scalable, and dispatchable clean energy source capable of supporting both baseload generation and long-term energy security.

At the same time, Small Modular Reactors (SMRs) are reshaping the future of nuclear deployment in Asia. With their modular design, smaller footprint, enhanced safety features, and faster construction timelines, SMRs offer a practical solution for nations seeking flexible low-carbon power—especially for remote regions, industrial hubs, data centres, hydrogen production, desalination, and island grids.

From large-scale nuclear expansion in China, India, and South Korea, to emerging interest across Southeast Asia, the region is moving from long-term planning to real implementation. Governments are strengthening policy support, licensing pathways, and cross-border cooperation, while investors and developers are increasingly exploring bankable business models and supply chain localisation to enable deployment at scale.

With energy demand surging and climate commitments tightening, Asia represents a major opportunity for nuclear energy and SMRs—not just as a power solution, but as a cornerstone for building a secure, resilient, and low-carbon economy for decades to come.

CMT’s Asia Nuclear Energy & SMR 2026 in Singapore brings together government agencies, regulators, utilities, technology developers, EPCs, financiers, supply chain leaders, and industry stakeholders to address the key enablers shaping the next phase of nuclear growth in the region.

Join this strategic platform to explore how Asia can unlock nuclear deployment at scale—through stronger regulatory frameworks, innovative financing structures, and supply chain readiness.
