Event Overview

The event titled Nuclear and Net Zero: The global status of nuclear is set to take place on July 23, 2025, from 13:00 to 14:00 GMT+1 at Booth Street East, Manchester. This one-hour session is part of the Expert Insights Series celebrating the Dalton Nuclear Institute's 20th anniversary.

Nuclear energy is increasingly recognized as a crucial component in the transition to a Net Zero future. As governments worldwide announce plans for new nuclear power plants, the potential of nuclear fission is expected to grow significantly over the next three decades. Concurrently, advancements in nuclear fusion are moving closer to commercial viability.

This interactive panel will address critical questions regarding the progress of nuclear energy, including the roles of resources, talent, investment, policy, supply chains, and technology. Participants will have the opportunity to engage with a diverse group of experts, including:

  • Juan Matthews, a veteran in nuclear technology with extensive experience in research and policy.

  • Princess Mthombeni, a prominent energy activist advocating for energy equity in Africa.

  • Alice Cunha da Silva, an innovation leader focused on digital transformation in the nuclear sector.

Attendees can expect a lively discussion on how global collaboration can foster success in nuclear energy and how advancements in fission can accelerate fusion development. Refreshments, including tea, coffee, and cake, will be provided during the event. For more information and to register, visit the Eventbrite page.
