Central Research Institute of Electric Power Industry and the NEA strengthen co-operation

CRIEPI and NEA MoU signing, October 2024

The NEA renewed the Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the Central Research Institute of Electric Power Industry (CRIEPI), a non-profit research organisation for the electric power industry and society in Japan. Initially signed in 2019, the renewal of the MoU will ensure the continuation of co-operation between the two organisations to deepen the understanding of the global research needs in the area of nuclear energy.

The NEA and CRIEPI will collaborate on a wide range of nuclear energy research issues, including those related to nuclear fuels and materials development, nuclear safety and risk management, radiological protection, radiological waste management, and education. These will be addressed by developing joint events, workshops and training activities, as well as by participating in relevant activities of each organisation.

The renewal of the MoU was signed in Paris on 7 October 2024 by NEA Director-General William D. Magwood, IV, and Dr Naoki Soneda, Senior Executive Vice President.
