Recent Engagements
TechEx: Data Centre Expo Europe
AMPERA Chief Commercial Officer Peter Holden joined industry leaders at TechEx Events’ Data Centre Expo in Amsterdam for a panel discussion focused on developing the infrastructure needed to support the next generation of data centers.Held on October 20, the panel, “Overcoming Development and Infrastructure Challenges,” explored the obstacles facing data center development. Peter brought AMPERA’s energy perspective to the discussion, emphasizing the need for scalable power solutions that address near-term infrastructure requirements while creating a pathway toward advanced nuclear energy.Peter highlighted the priorities behind AMPERA’s PowerNOW. NuclearNEXT. approach: supporting immediate power needs while preparing for longer-term energy opportunities. That perspective connected the panel’s broader infrastructure discussion with the need for reliable power to enable continued data center growth.The AMPERA team welcomed attendees to booth #148 to continue the conversation. Discussions focused on the company’s work to develop reliable, factory-built power systems through advanced manufacturing, artificial intelligence and next-generation energy technologies. AMPERA’s participation in the expo highlighted its focus on scalable power solutions for data centers, connecting near-term infrastructure requirements with longer-term pathways toward advanced nuclear energy.
Energy Policy & Regulatory Affairs Summit 2026
AMPERA Vice President of Reactor Engineering Cristian Marciulescu joined industry peers at Opal Group’s 2nd Annual Energy Policy & Regulatory Affairs Summit in Reston, Virginia, participating in an October 13 panel on advancing new nuclear projects.The panel, “Technology Showcase: Paths to Developing New Nuclear Projects,” explored the current regulatory landscape and opportunities to improve pathways for advanced nuclear newcomers. Panelists also discussed navigating the nuclear innovation ecosystem and accelerating supply chain development to support new projects.The summit brought together government representatives, market operators, utilities, power producers, developers, and large energy customers for discussions on the evolving energy policy and regulatory landscape.
Reuters: Fusion Energy Summit
AMPERA joined hundreds of fusion developers, investors, policymakers, utilities, industrial energy users and researchers at Reuters Events: Fusion Energy 2026 in Boston to help advance the industry conversation around commercializing fusion technology.Representing AMPERA, Dr. Zain Karriem participated in the panel, “From Breakthrough to Build Out: Turning Lab Innovation into Deployable Fusion Plants.” He contributed perspectives on the engineering, validation and manufacturing work needed to translate scientific progress into reliable, scalable power plants for industrial use.The discussion explored how disciplined component testing and qualification programs can demonstrate technology readiness and commercial viability, as well as how integrated plant design can balance performance, maintainability and manufacturability.At the AMPERA booth, attendees explored the company’s PowerNOW. NuclearNEXT™. strategy and its approach to meeting growing energy demand. Conversations highlighted how AMPERA’s Integrated Energy Architecture™ connects waste-heat recovery and conventionally fueled power generation with a pathway toward future advanced nuclear energy.Participants walked away with a practical takeaway: commercializing advanced energy requires more than a scientific breakthrough. It also demands disciplined engineering, component testing, qualification programs, integrated plant design and scalable manufacturing. AMPERA’s participation helped focus the discussion on the capabilities required to move promising technologies toward real-world deployment.As part of his visit to the Boston area, Dr. Karriem was also invited to tour Commonwealth Fusion Systems’ SPARC facility in Devens, Massachusetts, where he had the opportunity to see firsthand the technologies being developed for the SPARC fusion machine. The visit provided additional insight into the engineering and technology development efforts underway to advance fusion toward commercial deployment.
