OBJECTIVES

24 MARS 2015 | PAGE 3 CEA | MARCH 2015

The main objectives of the ESNII Plus project are to:

Develop a strategic approach for FRs in Europe in support of the

European Sustainable Nuclear Industrial Initiative (ESNII) within the SET-

Plan.

Prepare ESNII structuration and deployment strategy including legal,

administrative, financial and governance, for the Horizon 2020 period,

with a vision to 2050.

Implement European coordinated crosscutting R&D on Reactor Safety for

the next generation of nuclear installations.

Involvement of private and public stakeholders, from industry, research

and academic communities, with opened door to international collaboration,

including TSO.
