Nuclear Applications Modeling Center Debuts by JRC

Firing Up Innovation: Introducing the JRC's Nuclear Modeling Hub

In the race towards a greener planet, nuclear power has emerged as a key player in the low-carbon energy mix. But ensuring the safety of diverse reactor designs and fuels is paramount. Enter the digital modeling stage! This cutting-edge technology not only boosts safety but also saves resources, complementing experimental data by enabling us to describe and foresee the behavior of complex systems under different conditions.

Imagine having a digital twin of a nuclear reactor to study its responses in a critical situation. That's what digital modeling offers.

Enter the Nuclear Age of Collaborative Insights

Today, the Joint Research Centre (JRC) takes this a step further with the launch of its Nuclear Modeling Hub. This new platform aims to serve as a bridge between European stakeholders, offering reliable nuclear modeling and data. The JRC, with its unparalleled blend of advanced computing tools and decades of nuclear expertise, comes to the fore as the core of this innovative effort. The hub's mission? To deliver robust evaluations of both nuclear safety and energy policies.

The Nuclear Modeling Hub sets its sights on the future, particularly on Smart Modular Reactors (SMRs), which could significantly contribute to decarbonizing the EU's economy, especially heavy industry. But it's not just about industry; the hub is also a valuable tool for policymakers, offering a centralized platform to design and assess European policies at the intersection of energy, environment, and economy.
