Representatives of Rosatom State Corporation took part in the World Nuclear Association (WNA) Symposium, which ended on September 5 in London, United Kingdom.

The event, which has become one of the largest international platforms for sharing experience and discussing the future of nuclear energy, was attended by: Andrey Rozhdestvin, Director General of Rosatom Energy Projects, Polina Lion, Chief Sustainability Officer at Rosatom, and Ivan Dybov, Director of the Regional Center for Latin America, Rosatom.

Andrey Rozhdestvin delivered a presentation on “Building Nuclear Futures: Progress and Innovation Across National and Global Projects”. His address included an overview of national and international nuclear power plant construction projects and emphasized the importance of innovative programs in the nuclear fuel cycle.“Rosatom is consistently expanding the role of nuclear energy and making a significant contribution to achieving climate goals both in Russia and abroad by offering comprehensive nuclear power solutions. Thanks to the continuous development of innovative technologies, Rosatom provides international partners with advanced solutions across all segments of the nuclear fuel cycle,” he noted.

Polina Lion took part in the session “Energizing action,” which focused on new initiatives, innovations, and strategic steps toward the sustainable development of nuclear power.“Rosatom build NPPs in countries with very different macroeconomic situation and different culture - Russia, Turkiye, Egypt, Bangladesh, Hungary and others. What is similar – all these countries have a big request for reliable and sustainable source of energy, for nuclear energy. We see how our nuclear projects change people’s lives for better. And that is our real inspiration to move forward,” she said.

Ivan Dybov spoke at the session “Nuclear-Supplied Power: Applications Around the World.” He shared Rosatom’s experience in promoting multipurpose solutions for the peaceful use of nuclear energy in international markets, particularly in Latin American countries.

The World Nuclear Association (WNA) is an international organization uniting leading companies of the nuclear industry and promoting broader public understanding of nuclear technologies. Established in 2001 (known as the Uranium Institute until 2021), it is headquartered in London, UK. Over the years, the Association has earned a reputation as an important platform for international dialogue and the pursuit of a sustainable energy future. Rosatom traditionally plays an active role in WNA events.

The WNA Symposium is a global platform that brings together industry leaders, industrial and commercial companies, and regulatory bodies. Its meetings foster the advancement of technologies, the exchange of best practices, and the strengthening of international cooperation in the peaceful use of nuclear energy. This year’s Symposium was the 50th anniversary edition.

The effective operation of the fuel and energy complex plays a vital role in national economies, ensuring economic stability. Participants in the international nuclear market are expanding production and investing in import-substitution technologies. Rosatom and its enterprises are actively engaged in these efforts, helping to enhance the competitiveness of the nuclear industry.
