Podcast: World Nuclear Supply Chain conference

Wednesday, 18 June 2025

The first World Nuclear Supply Chain conference, held in Poland, heard from a succession of senior figures discussing the opportunities, and challenges, emerging from the forecast large-scale growth of nuclear energy capacity.

 


More than 300 people from 27 countries attended the World Nuclear Association event, which was designed to strengthen the nuclear supply chain. They heard that there was an estimated USD2 trillion investment opportunity for the global supply chain over the next 15 years.

A succession of high-profile speakers gave their thoughts, advice and outlined what was necessary to ensure future success. World Nuclear News's Warwick Pipe was there and he has gathered together a selection of extracts from the event.
