MUFG Bank, Ltd., Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corp., and Mizuho Bank, Ltd. are exploring a loan of around ¥3.6 trillion for initial projects under a $550 billion investment agreement with the U.S. The first investment phase targets $36 billion, including a gas-fired power plant in Ohio, a crude oil export facility, and synthetic diamond production.
The Japan Bank for International Cooperation (JBIC) will cover a significant portion of the financing, with loans backed by Nippon Export and Investment Insurance. Future investments may include next-generation small modular reactors. The loans for subsequent projects could significantly increase the total funding required.
