Technical Meeting on Nuclear Site Repurposing and Stakeholder Engagement in the Context of Circular Economy and Sustainability

Decommissioning nuclear facilities can bring significant economic implications for local communities via potential job losses, reduced tax revenues and other economic downturns in the surrounding vicinity. Public stakeholders in local communities often have a keen interest in how the decommissioning process is implemented and what end state and future use of the site are made. In addition, the awareness of and the experience in sustainability and circular economy considerations in the decommissioning of nuclear facilities are also developing in the Member States.

This event will facilitate the sharing of knowledge and experiences regarding the current practices and future plans for repurposing nuclear sites, focusing on stakeholder engagement in the sustainability and circular economy contexts, while envisioning the contribution to the IAEA’s International Conference on Stakeholder Engagement for Nuclear Power Programmes planed in May 2025.

All information about the meeting, including about participation and registration, will be announced on this web page, as it becomes available.
