    Partners in the lead-cooled SMR get together at side event to the IAEA General Conference

    This week, the 68th IAEA 'General Conference' is being held at the Vienna Conference Centre. In addition to a Belgian booth, in which SMR-LFR (lead-cooled, fast SMR) was one of the hot topics, Belgium also organised a side event on 17 September for the policymakers in attendance. The event once again underlined the importance of a European partnership that brings together research expertise and industrial know-how. The four partners wishing to form a consortium together, namely Ansaldo Nucleare, ENEA, Raten and SCK CEN were present and took the floor during the event. Their ambition is to sign a binding agreement by the end of the year.

    Science in harmony with nature: the grayling is back at SCK CEN

    A success made possible through thoughtful nature management

    At the SCK CEN site, we are currently busy building new research facilities. Despite these major construction sites, caring for our natural environment remains an important priority. Just a few years ago, we signed the Green Deal, an ambitious plan aimed at enhancing biodiversity and bolstering our support for nature management. Our efforts already seem to be bearing fruit: the grayling has in fact returned to our site.
