Why invest in CNP?
Why invest in CNP?
CNP is the most advanced privately funded nuclear energy programme in the UK, offering a unique opportunity to invest in clean, reliable, and scalable energy solutions. Through its first deployment project in Teesside, CNP is leading the way in bridging the UK’s growing energy demands with its Net Zero ambitions, while delivering attractive, long-term returns for investors.
The opportunity
Most advanced SMR project in the UK – CNP is processing the UK’s first privately financed SMR project to a licensed, construction-ready asset, with land, grid access and industrial offtake underway.
Long life infrastructure asset with early value optionality – Up to a 100‑year asset life and proven AP300®™ technology underpin a long‑duration clean energy asset, with the option to monetise a fully licensed, shovel‑ready project.
Compliant, deployment‑ready industrial site - A fully remediated Teesside site with existing grid, transport and water infrastructure, independently assessed as suitable for first‑of‑kind UK SMR deployment, materially reducing early project risk.
Growing demand for secure, home‑grown clean power - Geopolitical volatility, import dependence and rapid electrification, particularly from AI driven data centres and energy intensive industry, are increasing demand for reliable, domestically generated baseload power that intermittent renewables alone cannot supply.
Clear returns in the short, and medium term with a focused investment case, and project delivery team.
“CNP has assembled a world leading project delivery team that is standing ready to play its part in the impending critical energy shortage that is facing the UK. We know that in the coming decades access to clean, reliable power will define the economic prospects of the country.
Our unique approach to infrastructure development, de-risked technology pathway, and collaborative engagement with suppliers means that we have much greater visibility on the risks in such projects. Our community first model challenges the norm, and will ensure greater value for our shareholders.”
Paul Foster, Chief Executive of CNP
