ENELA Conference Cycle

 

ENELA, the European Nuclear Energy Leadership Academy, in collaboration with
the European Nuclear Safety Training and Tutoring Institute, has successfully completed the inaugural ENELA Conference Cycle (ECC) for nuclear and non-nuclear executives, opinion leaders and policy-makers dedicated to the topic:


'Putting Severe Accidents Into Perspective.
Learning From The Past, Preparing For The Future Of Nuclear Energy' 



The inaugural ECC gave reliable data and facts in a comprehensive way to executives involved in nuclear energy issues as well as to opinion formers and policy-makers. This ECC comprised three seminars. 

The conference cycle was co-chaired by the following distinguished international figures:



Prof. Akira Omoto, Tokyo University, Commissioner Japan Atomic Energy Commission
(JAEC)
Prof. Frank-Peter Weiß, CEO, Gesellschaft für Anlagen- und Reaktorsicherheit (GRS),

What was the background to this conference cycle..? 

In the aftermath of the accident at Fukushima-Daiichi in Japan, analysis continues and public debate often looks back to severe accidents of the past at Chernobyl and Three Mile Island. Getting a clear understanding of these highly-complex topics is not easy, especially for those without specialist nuclear knowledge.
However, specialists too benefited from this comprehensive programme, which addressed off-site issues, such as environmental health and public safety, in addition to the on-site perspective of nuclear power plant operators.
Our first ECC was dedicated to meeting this demand for the 'complete picture' – high-quality background information, presented in a comprehensible and condensed way, and addressing these key questions:

• How is the situation in Fukushima-Daiichi one year after the accident?
• Can we compare the Fukushima-Daiichi accident to other severe accidents?
• What is actually the current status of Chernobyl and TMI in terms of environmental, economic,   social and legal consequences?
• What have we learned from Chernobyl and TMI regarding accident management and long-term recovery activities?
• Are there some new 'lessons learned' to be drawn from Fukushima-Daiichi?
• What are the global prospects for the nuclear industry in the coming decades?
