TANDEM – Open Call for Papers

🚨 Call for Papers: Special Issue in SETA 🚨

We are excited to announce the Call for Papers for the special issue titled:

"Beyond Conventional Use of Nuclear for New Energy Needs and Net-Zero Emission" in the Elsevier peer-reviewed journal Sustainable Energy Technologies and Assessments.

📝 Guest Editors:

Dr. Shannon Bragg-Sitton, INL, USA

Dr. Michael Fütterer, EC-JRC, Netherlands

Prof. Dr. Marco Ricotti, CIRTEN, POLIMI, Italy

Dr. Claire Vaglio-Gaudard, CEA, France

 

📅 Important Dates:

Submission Open: 15 July 2024

Manuscript Submission Deadline: 31 August 2025 ⏰

 

🌍 Scope of the Special Issue:

This special issue will explore the critical role nuclear systems can play in an integrated vision of low-carbon energy and beyond traditional uses, such as power grid supply. We aim to investigate how nuclear energy can meet new energy demands and contribute to achieving net-zero emissions through hybridization with renewables, energy storage, and innovative applications.

 

🔑 Potential Topics:

⚡ Hybrid nuclear reactors with electric/non-electric applications and energy storage systems

⚛️ Nuclear cogeneration

💡 Small Modular Reactors (SMRs) & Micro Modular Reactors (MMRs) for non-electric applications

🔋 Hydrogen and synthetic fuel production with nuclear

🚢 New nuclear applications for ship propulsion, space exploration, data centers, agriculture, and more!🌱

 

We encourage researchers to contribute and share innovative solutions to address the challenges of climate change mitigation, energy transition, and sustainable energy systems.
