Consulting firm specialised in M&A
for nuclear
The nuclear sector is entering a new phase of global reconfiguration. From government carve-outs to cross-border investment in next-generation technologies, mergers and acquisitions are becoming a critical tool for reshaping the industry.
Historically dominated by public policy and state-owned enterprises, the nuclear landscape is evolving. In recent years, national operators have been restructured, civil supply chains consolidated, and new players have entered the market—particularly in areas such as decommissioning, dismantling, and emerging technologies like SMRs and AMRs.
Following major shifts such as Germany’s nuclear phase-out and Japan’s post-Fukushima shutdowns, the market has seen significant consolidation. At the same time, growing interest in small modular and advanced modular reactors, coupled with ambitious new-build programmes in the UK and emerging markets, is creating a fresh wave of cross-border transactions.
