Vice-President of Rusatom Overseas for projects of research reactors and centres of nuclear science and technology (CNST) Dmitry Vysotsky and the head of the International Affairs Department of the LLC MCI MBIR Consortium Artem Goncharuk presented innovative projects at a session on "New projects in the field of research reactors".

The safe and sustainable application of nuclear science in any industry relies on the availability of qualified managers and personnel—this is equally true in Africa’s burgeoning nuclear sector.

The UK government is in discussions regarding proposals for a new nuclear power plant at Wylfa on Anglesey,

As set out in Prime Minister Boris Johnson's Ten Point Plan for a Green Industrial Revolution, released in November 2020, the government wants the UK to be the first country in the world to commercialise fusion energy technology.

Therefore, "Nuclear energy has been identified as the primary means of ensuring energy security in the Czech Republic in the context of achieving the goal of a climate-neutral EU by 2050 due to its ability to ensure low-carbon, stable and cheap electricity supplies."

It therefore represents a hugely important national capability, enabling industry in the UK and internationally to design, and eventually qualify, components for future commercial fusion power plants.

OKBM said the RITM-200M unit is part of a wide range of low-power NPPs being developed by Rosatom.

The study found that to facilitate rapid decarbonisation and cut dependency on fossil fuels, both nuclear and renewables are needed for power and hydrogen production.

Canada’s Cameco, GE Hitachi Nuclear Energy (GEH), GEH SMR Technologies Canada, (GEH SMR Canada) and Synthos Green Energy (SGE), a member of the Synthos Group signed a non-exclusive and non-binding Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) to evaluate the potential establishment of a uranium fuel supply chain in Canada capable of servicing a potential fleet of BWRX-300 SMRs in Poland.

Poland uses coal as fuel for over 70% of its electricity, as well as half of its heat supply to district heating networks and industry, but is still to announce a definitive policy to fully transition away from this fossil fuel.

The Group of Vienna will support the IAEA in its mission to accelerate and enlarge the contribution of nuclear technologies to meet environmental, social, and economic goals and to improve the health and well-being of people.

Poland would be able to diversify its natural gas supplies in 2022 with the opening of the Baltic pipeline which would bring gas from Norway.

The IAEA presented its newly established Platform on Small Modular Reactors (SMRs) and their Applications, aimed at supporting countries worldwide in the development and deployment of this emerging nuclear power technology,

In June 2020, South Africa issued a Request for Information to test the market appetite for the 2500 MW of nuclear energy and received positive responses from 25 companies that showed an interest in this programme.

Энергетическое взаимодействие России и Турции поступательно развивается по всем направлениям энергетики, её опорным точками остаются вопросы развития поставок энергоресурсов - нефти и нефтепродуктов, а также природного газа по газопроводу “Турецкий поток”.
