The Cabri International Project (CIP) began in March 2000 to study the behaviour of nuclear fuel rods and cladding durin...

NMB4.0 is designed to provide flexibility and an all-in-one packaged nuclear fuel cycle simulation for users as open code. Various ideas have been implemented to improve user-friendliness. The main t...

The conflict in Ukraine has highlighted pressing concerns regarding radiological protection and the need to enhance both operational and regulatory resilience during times of armed conflict. While th...

TR_EVOL (Transition Evolution code) fuel cycle simulator is a tool dedicated to the study of mass balances of advanced transition electronuclear scenarios.

The Advanced Nuclear Cycle Code, ANICCA, is a nuclear fuel cycle simulation code (NFCSC) that has been developed by SCK-CEN as a flexible tool for nuclear fuel cycle studies. ANICCA is able to simula...

The International School on Simulation of Nuclear Reactor Systems (SINUS) provides hybrid, hands-on-training encompassing multiphysics modelling and simulation (M&S) and associated validation, verifi...

The Halden Reactor Project has been in operation at the Institute for Energy Technology (IFE) in Norway since 1958 and is the oldest NEA joint project. It brings together a large international techni...

Signed in Paris, France, the new Framework Agreement will enter into force on 1 March 2025.

Once irradiated or “spent” nuclear fuel is unloaded from a reactor it is usually stored at the reactor site for between five and ten years. It is then ready for long-term storage or for reprocessing ...

The Nuclear Law Committee (NLC) is a highly focused group of specialists designated by the NEA member countries, comprising lawyers, policy makers, academics and from time to time, technical experts....

The Nuclear Law Committee (NLC) established the Working Party on the Legal Aspects of Nuclear Safety (WPLANS) in 2016 to support the NEA’s efforts to strengthen its work in the nuclear safety area.

The WPLDF was established to identify and address issues of application of the nuclear liability regimes to deep geological repositories (DGRs) and other radioactive waste disposal facilities. 

Several applications of interest in nuclear criticality safety involve random media, which are media where the geometrical and/or material properties can only be described by assigning some probabili...

Registrations are open for this event scheduled to take place on 15-17 October 2025.

The proposed NEST project BEAST addresses postgraduate students, postdoctoral researchers and young professionals, who intend to work in the field of Nuclear Decommissioning and Waste Management. The...

国家内部和国家之间核设施退役成本估算的格式、内容和实践存在很大差异。这些差异自有其正当理由，但也会使审查估算值的过程变得复杂，估算值本身也难以论证。因此经济合作与发展组织核能署、国际原子能机构和欧盟委员会联合倡议列出退役成本的标准清单，可以直接用于成本估算或将估算值转换为标准的通用结构便于比较。本报告结合迄今为止积累的经验，更新了早期1999年公布的条目。修订后的成本分项结构旨在体现退役项目计划...

CSNI and CNRA members gathered for bi-annual meetings.

The NEA is partnering with the Nuclear Regulators for Gender Equity (NRGE) to collect data and develop tailored guidance for participating regulatory bodies from around the world to improve their gen...

This report presents the description and the interpretation of the tests carried out in the third phase of the NEA Working Group on Integrity and Ageing of Components and Structures (WGIAGE) activity...

NEA and WiN NEA Chapter co-organise a school event in France.

Since the publication, in 2001, of the Nuclear Energy Agency (NEA) report describing the role of underground research laboratories (URLs) in nuclear waste disposal programmes and their value to build...

The NEA seminar gathered nuclear regulators to discuss the topic on 3-4 December.
