Trader consensus on Polymarket reflects a 75% implied probability for "No" as the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) has not yet granted a full operating license for any new nuclear reactor in 2026, distinguishing recent milestones like the March 4 construction permit for TerraPower's Natrium advanced reactor in Wyoming—which allows building but not operation—from qualifying approvals such as Combined Operating Licenses (COLs) or standalone operating licenses. The NRC's freshly unveiled Part 53 rule on March 26 introduces a streamlined, technology-neutral licensing framework for advanced reactors including small modular reactors (SMRs), aiming to accelerate future deployments amid growing clean energy demand. However, historical precedents show full licensing processes span years, with no applications nearing completion by December 31, leaving traders skeptical despite regulatory momentum and potential near-term submissions.

A combined license must be clearly identified as such and documented in official NRC releases. Only initial issuances count; amendments, renewals, or partial approvals do not qualify.
The resolution source will be a consensus of credible reporting.
