    Description

    Climate change challenges and the need for urgent action to achieve decarbonization of all energy sectors, as well as latest advancements in technology have been leading to considerations for nuclear hydrogen’s role in the energy transition towards NetZero goals. Interest in nuclear hydrogen production is growing internationally due to the potential of nuclear energy to capitalize both on electricity and heat generation, in a sustainable, low carbon and cost-effective manner. Demonstration projects are ongoing in several countries to analyse the feasibility and business opportunities of nuclear hydrogen production, using existing light water reactors (LWRs) coupled with low temperature electrolysers. In other countries, research and development are focused on the medium-term potential of advanced reactors and small modular reactors for non-electric applications and hydrogen production using high temperature steam electrolysis (HTSE) or thermochemical processes.
    This event highlights some of the latest progresses achieved in nuclear hydrogen projects and showcase the potential of nuclear energy for hydrogen production. Sector cooperation, supply chain and policy support that have a crucial role in moving these projects forward will be discussed.

    Opening remarks will be given by Mikhail?Chudakov, IAEA Deputy Director General and?Head of the Department of Nuclear Energy.
