Background
Suppliers play a critical role in the construction and operation of nuclear power plants. With a declining number of nuclear grade suppliers and a loss of skills in some regions, supply chain oversight raises specific challenges that require regulators to adopt new practices and increase co-operation. In this context, the newly established NEA Working Group on Supply Chain (WGSUP) will organise a workshop to build on the Agency’s previous work in the field of the nuclear supply chain and to discuss latest challenges.
