Summary on Grant Application Form |
|
The Towards a Sustainable Energy Economy Programme is aimed at 'giving the UK access to a secure, safe, diverse and reliable energy supply at competitive prices while meeting the challenge of global warming. This overall interdisciplinary research programme will adopt a whole systems approach. It includes several mechanisms for supporting research -for example UKERC (the UK Energy Research Centre) -and Consortia, Research Groups and Networks.The subject of this proposal is support for the building of a Consortium Proposal under the heading 'Nuclear Power: Keeping the Nuclear Option Open. The research challenges in fission R&D span areas as diverse as maintaining and extending the life of existing generation plant; management of the current fission waste legacy; technology for future fission power generation and research that can contribute to an open and informed debate on the current and future role of nuclear power in the UK's energy supply. In making the call for proposals three main topics were emphasised: maintaining current generating capacity; fission within a sustainable energy economy and future fission power - with the anticipated scope of projects cutting across the three topics..
