About the programme
The Nuclear Safety and Decommissioning programme aims to protect the environment and human health by
- ensuring the safe removal of six older soviet-design nuclear reactors in Bulgaria and Slovakia
- decommissioning and radioactive waste management of obsolete Joint Research Centre nuclear research installations
The programme provides EU funds for decommissioning and waste management, to support knowledge sharing and synergies, and to deliver a safer Union.
