R&D: Minimization of waste during dismantling of nuclear power plants - Federal State

This investment funds the scaling up of Belgian expertise in radiological characterisation and decontamination techniques and methodologies  for the planned phase-out of nucelar power generation in Belgium. 

The aim is to minimise the amount of waste produced by maximizing the re-use and recycling of metals and concrete for example. The project will benefit from EUR 25 million from the Recovery and Resilience Facility. Implementation is due to be completed by 2026.
