WHERE WALL STREET MEETS MAIN STREET - JOIN ECA TO LEARN ABOUT FINANCING NUCLEAR PROJECTS ON SEPTEMBER 10!

Wall Street has arrived to Main Street. Understanding financing pathways is no longer optional—it’s a prerequisite for informed local leadership and successful project development.

Join ECA in its upcoming webinar featuring panelists shaping financing solutions for new generation of nuclear projects. Learn about the new business models emerging and how the financing will occur.

Nuclear projects will only move forward if they are financeable. While government funding has played a vital role, the new generation of projects are looking at how to structure the “capital stack” and use a mix of private financing (debt and equity), tax credits, and DOE loan program. In addition, the announced Power Purchase Agreements between utilities and large off-taker such as Google, Meta and Amazon are providing the credit needed to attract financing – once the projects are ready for market.

Join a conversation that will bring together government and the private sector to discuss these items and make recommendations on how these projects can move forward to facilitate these exciting business opportunities. This means real opportunities to attract capital, create jobs, and leverage nuclear projects for broader economic development.

Don’t miss this chance to hear from experts shaping the future of nuclear finance. Speakers will include:

Facilitator: Seth Kirshenberg - Executive Director | Energy Communities Alliance and Partner, Kutak Rock LLP
Andy Roehr - Managing Director | Baker Tilly Advisory Group, LP
Anthony Huston - Managing Partner | Quadrant Nuclear Industries
Chris Lohse - Innovation and Technology Manager | Gateway for Accelerated Innovation in Nuclear
