9-13 September: Technical Meeting on PSA for Non-Reactor Facilities

In the dynamic world of nuclear safety, precision and foresight are paramount. From September 9th to 13th, 2024, NRG will host a pivotal Technical Meeting on Probabilistic Safety Assessment (PSA) for Non-Reactor Nuclear Facilities. This event promises to be a cornerstone in advancing safety assessments for critical facilities involved in nuclear activities.

The meeting will gather global stakeholders—regulators, operators, design organizations, and technical institutes—to exchange experiences and best practices in safety demonstrations using advanced probabilistic and risk analysis techniques. Unlike nuclear power plants and research reactors, non-reactor facilities such as spent fuel storage and radioactive waste management pose unique challenges. These facilities require tailored risk assessment methods due to limited data availability and specific operational complexities.

Participants will engage in insightful discussions, sharing national approaches and addressing current challenges. The agenda includes expert presentations, national case studies, and interactive sessions designed to foster collaboration and shape future safety protocols.

English will serve as the working language, facilitating seamless communication among participants from diverse backgrounds and regions. Attendance is by invitation through competent national authorities or recognized organizations, with opportunities for financial support available to key contributors.

The Technical Meeting on PSA for Non-Reactor Nuclear Facilities isn't just a forum for sharing insights; it's a catalyst for advancing global safety standards in nuclear technology. Stay tuned for updates and outcomes from this vital gathering, where the future of nuclear safety is being defined.
