Utilities

Traditional utility companies are facing a dual challenge: increasing electricity demand driven by electrification and AI-driven power consumption, alongside the need to decarbonize their energy portfolios. While many utilities have historically relied on renewables and natural gas, nuclear power is gaining renewed interest due to its ability to provide 24/7, carbon-free baseload electricity. Nuclear Due Diligence Associates assists utilities that currently don’t have nuclear generation assets, nor the experience or knowledge-base to properly assess the available technology. We can assist in evaluating the economic and technical feasibility of adding nuclear capacity whether through new plant construction, SMR deployment, or the acquisition and restart of mothballed nuclear assets.

Our due diligence services focus on technology risk, regulatory compliance, and grid integration challenges, helping utilities navigate the complexities of deploying nuclear plants. We also assess operational risks, workforce readiness, and supply chain dependencies to ensure a smooth transition toward nuclear integration into your portfolio. With the energy sector undergoing rapid transformation, utilities that take proactive steps to integrate nuclear energy will be best positioned to meet future demand while maintaining grid reliability and emissions targets. Nuclear Due Diligence Associates provides the expertise needed to make these high-stakes decisions with confidence.
