SUMMARY:BNS-EVL-2026: 3 SMR / AMR series February, March and April (3/3)
DESCRIPTION:Lecture 1: AMR technology LFR: EAGLES (BE-IT-RO Project)\nBy Vincent Schryvers, Deputy Institute Director, Innovative Systems at SCK-CENMore details will be posted soon\nLecture 2: HEXANA: a sodium-cooled fast modular reactor for industrial decarbonization and grid flexibility      \n              By Caroline Bisor, Head of core components industrialization at HEXANA\nHEXANA is an innovative start-up awarded under the France 2030 program and a spin-off from the CEA (French Atomic Energy and Alternative Energies Commission), developing a sodium-cooled fast modular reactor (AMR/SFR) coupled with a thermal storage system. HEXANA targets the commissioning of its first-of-a-kind by 2035 and is designed to cogenerate both electricity and high-temperature industrial heat.The project’s ambition is built on a dual strategic convergence: contributing to the decarbonization of the most CO₂-intensive and hard-to-abate industrial sectors while delivering flexible low-carbon electricity to help accommodate renewables on the grid. In addition to that, HEXANA will also make it possible to go a step further regarding the closure of the fuel cycle.The technical concept relies on a streamlined and robust architecture derived from more than 70 years of French sodium fast reactor experience, minimizing technological disruption and securing cost and schedule trajectories.Particular emphasis will be placed on the qualification and industrialization of the core components (fuel assemblies, cladding, and internal structures), building on historical expertise while meeting current regulatory standards. The presentation will discuss the challenges of rebuilding a qualified supply chain and scaling industrial capabilities to enable progressive deployment toward series production.\nTiming\n18:30: Introduction of the First Lecture18:35: First Lecture Presentation (“AMR technology LFR: EAGLES (BE-IT-RO Project)” by Vincent Schryvers)19:05: Introduction of the Second Lecture19:10: Second Lecture Presentation (“HEXANA: a sodium-cooled fast modular reactor for industrial decarbonization and grid flexibility” by Caroline Bisor )19:40: Q&A20:10: Adjourn & Networking Drink\nRegistration\n\n	Notice: JavaScript is required for this content.\n\n\n    \n\n\n        \n        var formDisplay=1;var nfForms=nfForms||[];var form=[];form.id='3';form.settings={"ninjaForms":"Ninja Forms","changeEmailErrorMsg":"Please enter a valid email address!","changeDateErrorMsg":"Please enter a valid date!","confirmFieldErrorMsg":"These fields must match!","fieldNumberNumMinError":"Number Min Error","fieldNumberNumMaxError":"Number Max Error","fieldNumberIncrementBy":"Please increment by ","fieldTextareaRTEInsertLink":"Insert Link","fieldTextareaRTEInsertMedia":"Insert Media","fieldTextareaRTESelectAFile":"Select a file","tableInsertRowAbove":"Insert Row Above","tableInsertRowBelow":"Insert Row Below","tableInsertColumnLeft":"Insert Column Left","tableInsertColumnRight":"Insert Column Right","tableDeleteRow":"Delete Row","tableDeleteColumn":"Delete Column","tableDeleteTable":"Delete Table","tableLegacyNotice":"This content has tables in the old editor format.
