On Thursday, November 21<\/span>, we met with Vincent Berger, High Commissioner for Atomic Energy, and his team to hear the results of his audit on innovative nuclear technologies. The report highlighted our several strengths:<\/p>\n\n\n\n However, certain questions were also raised, such as:<\/p>\n\n\n\n For each of these points, we have proposed action plans and solutions to ensure they never become blocking issues. Find all the details of the conclusions and our proposals in our dedicated article<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n ____________________________________________________________<\/p>\n\n\n\n This month, we officially joined the program France2030 export<\/a>, led by Business France, for a duration of 30 months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Until 2026, this program will support the international projects of nearly 1,000 companies, including ours. We will rely on the Business France team to engage stakeholders effectively and co-develop an international offering, with the support of their network spanning over 100 countries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n ____________________________________________________________<\/p>\n\n\n\n On november 4-5<\/span>, we traveled to Knoxville, Tennessee, to participate in the workshop on molten salt reactors organized by Oak Ridge National Lab<\/a> in collaboration with the U.S. Department of Energy. <\/p>\n\n\n\n photo credits: Antoine Gerschenfeld ; Yoann Bomchil<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n ____________________________________________________________<\/p>\n\n\n\n A few weeks later, we met with the teams from the local equivalent of the CEA, Centrum v\u00fdzkumu Re\u017e<\/a>, during a conference on reinventing sustainable nuclear energy. The next day, we were invited to speak atENES2024<\/a>, theEuropean Nuclear Energy and SMR Conference.<\/em>This provided us with the opportunity to connect with key players in Eastern Europe's nuclear sector and establish future collaborations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n ____________________________________________________________<\/p>\n\n\n\n Shortly after our trip to Oak Ridge, we joined molten salt reactor enthusiasts in Orsay, Essonne, at theIJCLAB<\/a> facilities to attend the Generation IV International Forum<\/a> (GIF) steering committee meeting. It was a month rich in encounters, discussions, and promising exchanges for the bright future of next-generation reactors. The future is built as a team, and we are proud to be part of the molten salt community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n Join us next month for more news, or on\u00a0Linkedin<\/a>,\u00a0X<\/a>,\u00a0Bluesky<\/a>,\u00a0Youtube<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0Instagram<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Le mois de novembre aura encore \u00e9t\u00e9 tr\u00e8s fructueux pour les \u00e9quipes de Stellaria !

Over three days, we had the opportunity to learn about their research and that of several academics on the subject, gain insights into the progress of our transatlantic counterparts, and benefit from their experiences. Beyond molten salt technology, discussions covered nuclear safety, non-proliferation, and fission gases.
This event also allowed us to present Stellaria, the Stellarium and its operations, details of our reactor building and its multiple safety barriers, the recycling scheme for our salt, and our projected timeline.<\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.stellaria.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/DSC01313-Grande.jpg?resize=800%2C534&quality=89&ssl=1\")
