2016 Nuclear Academics Discussion meeting

摘要

The 2016 Nuclear Academics Discussion meeting was held at the University of Bristol in early September. The academics attending the two-day meeting heard a wide range of presentations that provided updates on existing Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC)-funded research consortia and centres for doctoral training; opportunities for international and industrial cooperation; plus updates on the new build and decommissioning programmes from industry. The new build section was particularly relevant as the EDF update was delivered just a few hours after the government had announced its final approval for Hinkley Point C!
