SNETP Forum – Join us in March 2026 in Madrid

Advanced Nuclear Technologies and Innovation for a Clean, Affordable and Sovereign European Energy Future. 

 

The SNETP Forum 2026 will explore recent technological and scientific progress in advanced nuclear technologies, including SMRs and AMRs, safety, non-electric applications, long-term operation (LTO), and improved NPP performance. The objective is to assess how these innovations can enable the nuclear sector to strengthen its contribution to climate change mitigation and adaptation. 

Based on results from recent collaborative projects, the Forum will identify key topics of common interest for the European community, helping to shape future R&D&I priorities and projects, and promoting knowledge transfer and harmonisation of best practices across the EU and beyond. 

The programme will combine strategic plenary sessions with technical parallel sessions, ensuring diversity and inclusion of transversal topics such as digitalisation, integration with other energy sources, and fuel cycle back-end. Young Generation involvement and collaboration with international networks will be encouraged. 

The Forum will take place at ESPACIO PABLO VI, a modern and well-connected venue located on Paseo de Juan XXIII 3 in Madrid, offering convenient access for participants and an ideal setting for high-level discussions and networking.

Past SNETP Forums

FISA – EURADWASTE & SNETP FORUM 2025 

From May 12–15, nearly 700 participants from 38 countries gathered in Warsaw for FISA EURADWASTE 2025 and the SNETP Forum, uniting researchers, industry leaders, policy experts, students, and entrepreneurs to advance nuclear energy’s role in Europe’s clean, sustainable, and secure energy transition. FISA EURADWASTE, under the Polish EU Council Presidency, marked the 11th edition of the International Euratom conferences on fission safety and radioactive waste management, co-organised by NCBJ, ENEN, ENS, the ENS Young Generation Network, and SNETP.

For the first time, the SNETP Forum was fully integrated into this flagship event, fostering collaboration and energising discussions on innovation, policy, and strategic partnerships. Over four days, participants from research institutes, universities, industry, and the public sector exchanged ideas, showcased innovations, and explored initiatives such as the European Alliance on Small Modular Reactors (SMRs), shaping the future of nuclear energy in Europe.
