Overview
- Hyundai E&C hosted a large-scale nuclear technology seminar on Feb. 10 at The Westin Dallas Downtown, drawing representatives from about 100 U.S. nuclear and construction firms.
- The event was positioned to support Fermi America’s Project Matador near Amarillo, which plans four AP1000 reactors within an 11‑gigawatt private energy campus.
- Hyundai E&C completed a FEED contract with Fermi America last year and says it is working toward an EPC agreement in the first half of 2026, with discussions ongoing and no award yet.
- Technical sessions addressed construction standards, modular build methods, major mechanical installations, heavy lifting, nuclear plant buildings, and workforce development and training.
- Fermi America’s Mesut Uzman cited accelerating AI-driven electricity demand in praising Hyundai E&C’s delivery capability, as Hyundai builds ties with top ENR-ranked U.S. contractors to bolster local execution.
