Japan has 15 operating reactors out of 32 operable, with the 7th Strategic Energy Plan targeting 20% nuclear by FY2040. The $40B US-Japan BWRX-300 SMR deal (Mar 2026) and data center power demand tripling by 2034 are accelerating restarts. NRA eased anti-terrorism deadlines (Apr 2026). 60+ year reactor lifetime extensions approved. European SMR momentum accelerating: Rolls-Royce SMR signed landmark UK contract with GBE-N for 3 SMRs at Wylfa (Apr 13, 2026; £599M govt loan); GVH-AFRY collaboration for BWRX-300 in Sweden (Apr 7, 2026); Swiss Council of States voted to lift nuclear ban (Mar 2026). Japanese supply chain companies positioned as critical global suppliers.
