In October 2020, NC2I, one of the three pillars of SNETP, published its Roadmap for the Deployment of Industrial Nuclear Cogeneration in Europe. The paper highlights the fact that nuclear heat is a unique solution for curbing industrial greenhouse emissions and can therefore contribute to reaching the Green Deal objectives.
We are pleased to announce that SNETP and its pillars have a new visual identity. SNETP has evolved considerably over the last years, becoming an international association (AISBL) in 2019. In this context we have decided to refresh our logos to give them a more modern look to underline the synergies between the association pillars.
