Energy Transition: The Role of Nuclear
Net zero needs nuclear. Mankind needs a reliable energy source that works regardless of the weather, working together with renewable energy, and its implementation is crutial to the successful energy transition.
Neutrons for Progress
Nuclear energy is a powerful tool to support sustainable development throughthe scientific and medical applications of neutrons and other types of radiation. Research reactors and neutrons sources are irreplaceable for those purposes.
Communication, Policy and Education
Every success need a good story. Dissemination the peaceful use of nuclear technology and its benefits is crucial to its success. Together with education they form prosperous policies.
Future Nuclear
Experimental and demonstration reactor designs present on drawing boards, that one day may be the everyday life of advanced energy with potential new features and applications.
Reactor physics, Thermal hydraulics, and Simulation
All ideas to become a complete, safe project need a solid portion of calculations. Safe and effective operation is impossible without multiple computer codesfrom various physics areas.
Nuclear Safety and Security
Ensuring nuclear reactors and radioactive sources safety and security remains a matter of global attention. Incidents and emergencies could have significant consequences thus the nuclear community is in constant need to achieve highest possible level of safety standards.
Operation and Maintenance
Well-managed, safe nuclear power plants and installations continually and gradually improve their standards of operation and maintenance. Maintenanceincludes measures that ensure well-tempered functioning of structures, systems and components from construction to decomissioning
Fuel Cycle and Radiation Protection
No machine can run without fuel, nuclear fuel needs to be handled properly. Community efforts are aimed at implementing the development of technical solutions for safe storage and circular economy
