The NEA will participate in the 28th UN Climate Change Conference of the Parties (COP28) in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, to shed light on nuclear energy’s role in addressing climate change.
Climate change will create specific risks and challenges for nuclear power plants and the electricity system as a whole. Extreme weather events caused by climate change – such as floods, storms, heat...
All low-carbon solutions will be required to achieve the world's net zero targets. Nuclear energy has a role to play in meeting this need. A wave of innovation in small modular reactors (SMRs) is adv...
The International workshop on disruptive technologies for nuclear safety applications is one of the most significant digital innovation events of the year. This two-day workshop was held on 16-17 May...
The nuclear sector is constantly looking for new technologies that will make nuclear power plants even more reliable, cost-effective and safe.
Nuclear innovation in small modular reactors (SMRs) has the potential to address multiple energy policy priorities around the world, from decarbonising electricity and deep decarbonisation of hard-to...
Independent safety regulation has been a hallmark of the global nuclear power sector from its beginnings. Industry and government have long understood the importance of a predictable and adaptable re...
An NEA initiative to accelerate R&D and market deployment of innovative nuclear fission technologies.
All credible models show that nuclear energy has an important role to play in global climate change mitigation efforts (e.g. IEA, 2021; BNEF, 2021; IIASA, 2021). Despite clear analyses from many sour...
