European Nuclear Society

📣⚛️🎙️ #PIME conference took place at the ITER Organization site in Cadarache over the last two days. 5 years after the last edition, many hot topics have changed, and challenges have evolved while great steps forward have been made. 📊⚛️🌐 It was then time for #nuclear communicators to gather and restart sharing good practices, ideas, suggestions and recommendations on the approaches and strategies for effective #communication about nuclear. Among the contents which boosted the discussions and inspired the workshops, we explored: 🎙️nuclear #narratives for media, politics, and public perception 📣 the power of #storytelling ⚙️ evolving comms paradigms on #SMRs, #AMRs and new nuclear #technologies 🙋♀️ the #gendergap in nuclear support 👷 comms for #HR 🤝 local #stakeholders' engagement 🗨️👏🤩 The European Nuclear Society would like to thank all the speakers and participants for attending this event and having contributed to two days of insightful, fruitful exchanges. It was great to see this #community come together again to shape the future of nuclear communications! 👏 Special thanks to ITER and Griffith Sabina for hosting us and showcasing the impressive works on this unique project!

🇫🇷🇪🇺🌐 We share this interesting workshop organised by the Permanent Representation of #France to the #EU, in collaboration with OECD NEA, and focusing on #financing as one of the most pressing challenges that countries must address to succeed with plans for new #nuclearenergy #projects. 📊⚛️🏗️ The high-level panel, starting from the latest NEA Report "Effective Frameworks and Strategies for Financing Nuclear New Build" will focus on current trends, perspectives, and regulatory challenges, and will give the #opportunity to engage in insightful discussions and collaborate on possible ways forward. 📍 19th November 2024, 4 pm - Permanent Representation of France to the EU, Brussels ▶️ Registration: https://lnkd.in/dBjjFvZB Représentation permanente de la France auprès de l’Union européenne 🇫🇷🇪🇺, Philippe Montarnal, OECD Nuclear Energy Agency

🏙️ As a city that beautifully combines rich cultural heritage with modern infrastructure, Zagreb is the perfect backdrop for fostering collaboration and knowledge exchange. 👩🔬 Attendees can look forward to insightful discussions, networking opportunities, and a chance to experience the vibrant atmosphere of Croatia’s capital. 🏭 Join our technical and leisure tours to Nuclear power plant Krško, Plitvice lakes and much more in Zagreb. There is still a chance for paper submission! Act quickly and join us in shaping the future of nuclear energy! #NuclearConference #Zagreb2024 #ENYGF #CroatianNuclearSociety

🤝⚛️🏥 NRG (ENS Corporate Member) and TAG1 Inc. have signed a multi-year #partnership to secure a critical supply of radium-224 for the production of lead-212 (Pb-212) #isotope. 🔬⚛️👨⚕️ This agreement aims to strengthen the #supply chain for innovative #radiopharmaceutical cancer treatments, including Targeted Alpha Therapies (TATs), which hold great promise for treating tumours that have been traditionally difficult to target. 🎯⚛️❤️ Indeed, lead-212 is increasingly recognized for its role in TATs, offering precision #treatments by delivering potent alpha particles directly to cancerous cells while sparing healthy tissue. ▶️ https://lnkd.in/dVz67DrQ

📝⚛️🇧🇬 Westinghouse Electric Company (ENS Corporate Member) announced the extension to the current Front-End Engineering and Design (#FEED) contract with Bulgaria’s #Kozloduy NPP-Newbuild for two AP1000 reactors. ⚙️🏗️👷♂️ Once completed, the next step in the Kozloduy project is the Engineering Services Contract, which will kick off the #design, #licensing, #training, #projectmanagement, and site planning process ahead of the subsequent #construction contract. 💡⚛️🌐 This extension builds on the progress being made on the Kozloduy expansion project, the only NPP in #Bulgaria and the largest in the region. Units 5 and 6 have a total installed capacity of 2GW, which supplied more than 40% of the country’s #electricity in 2023.

⚛ [Conférence] La Belgique, au carrefour de l’énergie nucléaire en Europe ! Rejoignez-nous le 5 novembre à 18h à Aix-en-Provence pour une conférence-débat organisée par la Sfen Provence avec comme intervenants deux représentants du Comité de Direction de Tractebel, Xavier Delhaye, Directeur Technique et Anicet Touré, Directeur, Stratégie, Innovation et Développement Commercial. 🏗 Ils nous expliqueront le contexte de la politique énergétique en Belgique où en dépit d'"une loi de sortie du nucléaire", la décision a été prise de prolonger deux réacteurs en raison de la hausse des prix du gaz et du risque de pénurie d'électricité. Ils reviendront sur le développement des 7 réacteurs nucléaires dans les années 70 et sur les projets majeurs entrepris sur ce parc depuis, projets tous portés par l’ingénierie nucléaire multidisciplinaire qu’est Tractebel, aux côtés de l’exploitant Electrabel (tous deux filiales à 100% d’ENGIE Belgium). 🤝 Ses 60 ans d’expertise en Belgique dans ce contexte ont permis à Tractebel de nouer des partenariats en France avec EDF et à l'international sur nombre de projets de construction, d’amélioration de la sûreté ou de prolongation de centrales nucléaires (programmes de type Grand Carénage). 💡 Tractebel est aussi à la pointe de l'innovation sur les technologies nucléaires avancées et est un précurseur dans le domaine des petits réacteurs modulaires (SMR). Notre entreprise est notamment actuellement impliquée dans le développement de deux projets de technologies SMRs en Europe, NUWARD, le projet d'EDF de SMR à eau pressurisée et THORIZON, un projet franco-hollandais de réacteur à sel fondu. De plus, Tractebel a conclu un partenariat avec deux entreprises canadiennes, Hatch et Laurentis Energy Partners, afin de créer des ponts entre le Canada et l'Europe pour accélérer la transition énergétique grâce aux technologies SMR.  👉 Pour en savoir plus et participer à la conférence, inscrivez-vous via le lien suivant: https://lnkd.in/eUyKYQ6y #EngineeringaCarbonNeutralFuture #SMR #nucleaire #ingenierie Vincent GAUTIER
