The inaugural Clean Firm Power LATAM Summit (CFP-LATAM 2026) will take place in Mexico on February 11, 2026, bringing together leaders in energy, digital infrastructure, policy, finance, and technology to discuss the essential role of clean, 24/7 power in supporting Latin America's digital economy. As the demand for electricity accelerates due to AI, hyperscalers, and industrial electrification, the region must rise to the challenge of delivering clean firm power for sustainable growth.
One of the key sessions at the summit, titled "Nuclear Momentum on the Rise for Latin America?," will explore the increasing relevance of nuclear energy in meeting the region’s clean energy demands. Antonio Vaya Soler will deliver introductory remarks and moderate this engaging panel discussion. The session will focus on the potential of small modular reactors (SMRs) to provide reliable, clean power for grids, industries, and digital facilities, while also addressing the necessary regional cooperation and regulatory innovations to facilitate their adoption.
