Developing Lead Fast SMRs to provide the world with a safe, stable power source and reduce volumes of radioactive waste

About us

Since launching in 2021 newcleo has quickly established itself as innovator in the field of nuclear energy. newcleo is working to design, build, and operate Gen-IV Advanced Modular Reactors (AMRs) that are cooled by liquid lead and fuelled by reprocessed nuclear waste. Through an innovative combination of existing and proven technologies, and by reviving a nuclear industry model based on the manufacture and multi-recycling of Mixed Oxide fuel, newcleo aims to close the nuclear fuel cycle while safely producing clean, affordable, and practically inexhaustible energy required for low carbon economies. With a EUR 50m group turnover in 2024, more than EUR 537m of private funding and over 90 partnerships and collaborations across the nuclear industry, the growth of the newcleo group is supported through the targeted acquisition of key companies with strong capabilities in nuclear engineering, manufacturing, and waste management. Through its workforce of over 950 highly qualified employees across France, the UK, Italy, Switzerland and Slovakia, newcleo is not only developing and delivering the skills and services required for the group’s own ambitious project timelines, but also supporting the development of Small Modular Reactor supply chains in Europe and beyond.

    🌐 At Datacloud - a techoraco brand Energy & ESG Europe 2025 yesterday, James Bowyer joined industry leaders to discuss how nuclear energy - particularly advanced technologies like SMRs - could support the growing power demands of data centres.     💬 “Great discussion yesterday – it is clear that nuclear, especially SMRs and AMRs, can have a key role to play in providing the stable low carbon energy needed to support global data centre expansion. There is a great opportunity for both sectors to work together on matter such as siting, closing the STEM skills gap and supply chain development. However, the only way we can make nuclear powered data centres a reality in the timescales needed is for both sectors to have a joined up cross industry approach to deployment.” - James Bowyer, Project Director at newcleo 💡 The discussion explored key challenges, including regulatory frameworks, cost, and public perception, as well as the urgency of developing viable solutions at scale. The race is on to bring commercial SMR deployment closer to reality to meet the demand being created by the data centre sector. #NuclearEnergy #DataCentres #SMRs #Innovation #DatacloudEnergy #newcleo

  • 🇮🇹 We were honoured to welcome Adolfo Urso, Minister of Enterprises and Made in Italy, Gilberto Pichetto Fratin, Minister of the Environment and Energy Security, and Emanuele Orsini, President of Confindustria, to our joint research centre at ENEA-Brasimone today. Here, we are testing innovative materials and building our first 10 MW non-nuclear reactor, which is set to be completed by 2026. ⚛️ This visit took place just days after the Italian Council of Ministers approved a delegated act that will enable Italy to reintroduce nuclear energy into its energy mix. It stands as a testament to the Government’s commitment to exploring new and sustainable nuclear technologies that can enhance the country’s energy independence, security, and affordability. 🤝 Following the visit, we were also honoured to host the second meeting of Confindustria’s Steering Committee on Nuclear Energy, chaired by Aurelio Regina, where key industry leaders came together to discuss a unified approach to supporting nuclear energy’s return to Italy. 💡 The Ministers were joined by Vincenzo Colla (Regione Emilia-Romagna), Stefano Buono, Elisabeth Rizzotti, and Luciano Cinotti from newcleo, as well as ENEA’s Giorgio Graditi, Alessandro Dodaro, and Mariano Tarantino. #newcleo #NewNuclear #Innovation #Research #Italy

  • 🇦🇪 We’re thrilled to announce that newcleo and Emirates Nuclear Energy Company have signed a Memorandum of Strategic Cooperation to explore deploying Lead-Cooled Fast Reactor (LFR) technology in Europe and the MENA region. The memo covers: - Co-investment & project development in Europe  - Decarbonising hard-to-abate sectors in MENA, such as data centres and hydrogen production  - Advancing nuclear innovation & fuel cycle closure 💬 “We are proud to have a chance to collaborate with ENEC, both on UAE’s home market, the region, and our own European projects, to deploy the next generation of nuclear technology. Our joint effort will create opportunities for a new model for cooperation between public and private nuclear energy companies, which could one day be exported beyond our respective markets.” - Stefano Buono, CEO of newcleo 🤝 Bringing together newcleo’s pioneering technology and ENEC’s expertise in nuclear project delivery, this collaboration marks a major step towards a cleaner, more sustainable energy future. 🔗 Read the full press release here: https://lnkd.in/ddUWZBUP #NewNuclear #Innovation #CleanEnergy #NetZero #LFR #newcleo
