Evening Lecture – European Human Resources Observatory for Nuclear

The European Human Resource Observatory for Nuclear (EHRO-N) provides the European Commission with essential data related to supply and demand for nuclear experts in the EU28 and the enlargement and integration countries based on bottom-up information from the nuclear industry.

The objective is to assess how the supply of experts for the nuclear industry in the EU28 and the enlargement and integration countries responds to the needs for the same experts for the present and future nuclear projects in the region. Complementary to the bottom-up approach taken by the EHRO-N team at JRC, a top-down modeling approach has been taken in a collaboration with NRG in the Netherlands. This top-down modelling approach currently fosuses on the human resource requirements for operation, construction, and efforts for long term operation of nuclear power plants.

The presentation will introduce EHRO-N and will show main results from the bottom-up survey and top-down modelling approach.
