British Energy is the UK's largest producer of electricity, generating around one-fifth of the nation's needs and making a powerful contribution to the country.

With a clear focus on safe, dependable energy generation and an ethos of service excellence, we pride ourselves on delivering far more than just power.

Nestor H. Cravero, Senior Procurement Officer with the International Atomic Energy Agency in Vienna will deliver a keynote speech during the morning of EICFusion. He will be giving an overview of the international nuclear sector - current projects, decommissioning, new build opportunities and so on. He will also provide details of the procurement processes used by the IAEA and how delegates can do business with the IAEA. We are also hoping that Nestor will be able to offer 1-2-1 appointments, running alongside the rest of the agenda, through the course of the day. Full details of this will be issued to delegates booked on to the event nearer the time.

We would like to thank UKTI, supporter of EICFusion, for making the arrangements for the IAEA’s involvement in the event

• There is a worldwide nuclear renaissance underway with new reactors ordered in China and the USA and construction in France and Finland.
• In the UK, there is market potential for a fleet of new generation reactors.
• By 2035, there will potentially be 400 new reactors around the world.

Organised and Managed by the Energy Industries Council in partnership with British Energy, this must attend event will focus on the Nuclear industry and issues, decommissioning, new build and regulation, allowing delegates to hear up to eight presentations throughout the day.

Giving the go ahead that new nuclear power should play a role in providing the UK with clean, secure and affordable energy is in our country's vital long term interest. John Hutton, Energy Secretary
