OAKVILLE, Ontario, March 14, 2018 -- Terrestrial Energy has entered into contract for technical services with the European Commission’s Joint Research Centre (JRC) in Karlsruhe, Germany. This is part of Terrestrial Energy’s validation and verification program for the IMSR® power plant design now underway. The JRC will perform confirmatory studies of the IMSR® fuel and primary coolant salt-mixture. The facility will undertake the tests under conditions compliant with quality assurance protocols of nuclear codes and standards, as is required to advance a nuclear power plant design through the regulatory process.
The JRC is a Directorate-General of the European Commission and is spread across six sites in five different countries within the EU, including Karlsruhe. The JRC employs over 3,000 people, from EU countries and candidate countries to EU membership, who bring their skills, talents, passion and rigour into the scientific activities meant to underpin EU policies. Funded by the EURATOM Research and Training Programme for its nuclear work, the JRC’s budget is approximately €330 million annually for direct support to EU institutions through scientific and technical advice to policy.
