Dutch Industry activities in BrightnESS

Jan 12, 2017
The Reactor Institute Delft (RID), part of Delft University of Technology, is a university-based nuclear facility, as such the only one in the Netherlands, and is dedicated to both research and education.

Together with the research department Radiation, Science & Technology (RST) it is the Dutch knowledge centre for radiation-related research and education and forms an independent knowledge base for Dutch society.

Through the involvement in BrightnESS WP6 and the role of Dutch ILO to ESS, Toon Verhoeven, the Dutch outreach activities to industry includes several ILO meetings, Big Science Industry Day, held in Eindhoven in October 2016, visits to several companies, and a seminar at the Dutch Institute for Fundamental Energy Research (DIFFER) held in November 2016. All of these events, and more to come, will repeat themselves in 2017.

In BrightnESS, RID is involved in Work Package 2: Strengthening In-Kind Contribution and Coordination. More specifically, RID is occupied with Task 2.4, which is about the creation of an In-Kind Contributions network of Regional Hubs. RID is also part of Work Package 6: Collaboration, Communication and Dissemination.
