Welcome to AtomEco 2017!

On the 22nd of November in Moscow the International Public Dialogue-Forum and Exhibition “AtomEco 2017” ended its elaborations. The event was organized by ROSATOM, the Federal Environmental, Industrial and Nuclear Supervision Service (Rostechnadzor) and supported by the Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment of the Russian Federation and the IAEA.

The main theme of AtomEco-2017 was the “Clean Energy for Future Generations”. Over 1,000 delegates and guests participated in the dialogue-forum and exhibition in two days. The public representatives and specialists focused their discussions on issues of environmental safety and public acceptance of nuclear, of regulating environmental protection, of new environmentally safe technological solutions in the waste management and decommissioning.

At the plenary session of the Forum held on November 21, experts discussed the role of nuclear power in ensuring the global transition to low-carbon generation and concluded that nuclear corresponded to all requirements of future energy in terms of ecology and economy. With this, nuclear is not an alternative to renewables. “We think these are supplementary components which should be the base of the future carbonless mix,” First Deputy Director General and Director of Development and International Business Kirill Komarov stressed, paying attention to the necessity of  explaining advantages of nuclear. “If we compare the total prime cost over the life cycle, nuclear is still one of efficient electricity generation sources today,” he said.

The Forum included 15 sessions and round-table discussions in three topical tracks: “Safety, Nuclear Technologies, Ecology”, “Regulation and Environmental Protection” and “Society and Nuclear Power”.

Also, AtomEc-2017 hosted the signing of the cooperation agreement between ROSATOM and the French National Radioactive Waste Management Agency (ANDRA) on the final safe isolation of RAW.

The exhibition of the Forum showed cutting-edge technologies and projects in the area of SNF and RAW management, decommissioning, and clean-up of different media. Divisions and companies of ROSATOM, including FSUE NO RAO, RosRAO, JSC TVEL, JSC Atomenergomash, Group of Companies ASE, Rosenergoatom Concern, Mining and Chemical Combine, PA Mayak, and FSUE Radon, demonstrated their developments.
