Description

In 2009, two starting memoranda for the new nuclear plants to be built were presented to the Dutch government. One for the construction of the second nuclear power plant in Borssele and one for Pallas, the new reactor for research and production of medical isotopes. With both starting memoranda, the respective initiators, Delta Energy BV and Nuclear Research and consultancy Group (NRG), indicated intentions to actually start the construction of Pallas and Borssele-2 after going through the necessary procedures. This means that billions will be invested in new nuclear facilities. This also means that there will be opportunities for Dutch industry to carry out work for both projects.
The Nuclear Engineering Department and the Energy and Heat Technology Department of KIVI have therefore organised an evening meeting with four presentations, at which the various aspects of industrial participation in nuclear projects will be discussed

1) Rob van den Berg (Jacobs Nederland BV) will inform about what a company must have in place to qualify for nuclear work.
2) Victor Wichers (NRG) will discuss the requirements that European electricity companies impose on nuclear power reactors. These requirements are set out in the European Utility Requirement document, which aims to promote standardisation and harmonisation of the programme of requirements for light water reactors to be built in Europe.
3) Meindert Tiemensma (BAM Civiel BV) will report on BAM's involvement in the construction of COVRA's HABOG.
4) George Zon (ex-Sep / Nucon) will share his experiences of nuclear plant construction. He was involved in the construction of the Leibstadt nuclear power plant in Switzerland and of the HABOG.
