Challenges To Nuclear Operations
Professor Sue Cox
Dean of The Management School

The rapid changes in the nuclear sector including the impact of new electricity
tariffs, The Energy Review and the establishment of the Liabilities Management
Authority (LMA), to oversee legacy waste provide the sector with a plethora of
challenges.
This seminar will consider how the European Research Grant 'LearnSafe' (funded
by the Nuclear Fission Safety part of the 5th Framework Programme of the
European Union) has been initiated to address the management of such
challenges. Partners include representatives from academia and industry in five
European countries.
The initial phases of the research will be described and methods of analysing
the preliminary data, collected across Europe, will be discussed. Reflections
from the audience about the research will be invited in what is a topical and
regionally relevant sector.
