C5's Nuclear New Build 2011 is back again for its 3rd year!

Nov. 22, 2010 - PRLog -- With the Annual Energy Statement confirming Nuclear power’s role in the UK’s future energy mix, operators, supply chain members and their advisors are continuing to form relationships and begin preparatory work to ensure the delivery of proposed new build projects.  However, hurdles remain in the form of investor concerns, questions over insurance capabilities and lessons to be learned from recent projects in Finland and France.

At this crucial time for stakeholders looking to get involved in nuclear new build, C5 has comprehensively researched and developed the Nuclear New Build 2011 conference to ensure the content is practical, sophisticated and indentifies the key commercial and legal issues arising from UK new build projects, as they stand today, as well as taking into consideration how they will develop in future.  An unrivalled faculty will provide expert knowledge and strategic insight into advising on and contributing to current and future nuclear projects, focusing on key supply chain issues and regulatory concerns at this critical juncture for UK new build.
