Cape Town – Enlit Africa has announced dedicated nuclear-focused content within its 2026 conference programme, positioning nuclear not as a theoretical debate but as an execution topic centred on addressing delivery constraints, readiness, and real-world decision-making.
The event takes place on 19–21 May 2026 at the Cape Town International Convention Centre in Cape Town, South Africa.
As countries and utilities balance energy security, affordability, and decarbonisation goals, nuclear is increasingly being evaluated through the lens of implementation: life extension, supply chain capability, regulatory readiness, skills, and grid integration.
Enlit Africa’s nuclear programme coverage is designed to bring together utilities, regulators, policymakers, technology providers, and financing stakeholders to engage on these practical enablers.
Nuclear programme coverage will include:
Koeberg life extension as an execution case study: lessons on planning, delivery, and operational readiness for life extension programmes
New build readiness and procurement realities: a focus on the governance, sequencing, and decision frameworks required to move from intention to delivery
Grid integration and system planning: discussions on how nuclear fits within wider system reliability, transmission planning, and long-term capacity strategies
Supply chain, localisation and skills: what it takes to build durable delivery capability beyond individual projects
“The conversation is shifting from whether nuclear is part of the mix to what it would take to deliver it responsibly and successfully,” said Claire Volkwyn, Head of Content, Power, Energy and Water, VUKA Group.
“We are structuring this content around execution: readiness, regulation, supply chain, skills, and system integration.”
Enlit Africa, created by VUKA Group, forms part of a broader delivery-focused agenda spanning power and water infrastructure.
