SUMMARY:28th International Conference on Structural Mechanics in Reactor Technology (SMiRT28)
DESCRIPTION:The Westin Harbour Castle\, Toronto\, ON \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe SMiRT28 conference will deliberate ways of “harnessing nuclear technologies and innovation as a path to net zero by 2050” in Toronto\, “The Nuclear Energy Capital” of Canada\, home to two large multi-unit stations in North America\, Pickering and Darlington and another multi-unit station in Bruce within 200 km of Toronto. In 2015\, the province of Ontario has invested CAD 26 Billion in a 15-year program\, one of North America’s most significant clean energy projects. Canada and the US have recently become the focal point of SMR activities. Given all of the above developments\, the 28th SMiRT conference in Toronto\, Canada\, will bring the international community together to learn from each other how to enhance safety and security in the emerging SMR technologies\, among other initiatives Canada has embarked upon\, such as isotope production in power reactors\, decommissioning projects\, and the use of innovative technologies in the nuclear industry. We welcome you to SMiRT28 in Toronto and share your research and experiences in harnessing nuclear technologies and innovation as a path to net zero by 2050.

SUMMARY:5th Nuclear Waste Management\, Decommissioning and Environmental Restoration Conference (NWMDER)
DESCRIPTION:Blue Mountain Resort\, Ontario \n\n\n\nThe 6th Canadian Conference on Waste Management\, Decommissioning and Environmental Restoration will be held in Blue Mountain on August24th-28th\, 2025. The theme of the conference is Balancing the Management of Radioactive Waste and Future Decommissioning Of Canada’s Existing Nuclear Fleet with the needs for building a new Zero-Carbon Future. \n\n\n\nCanada’s leading conference on radioactive waste and decommissioning is happening at an exciting time for the industry as the Deep Geological Repository for Spent Fuel project is moving to the next stage with NWMO’s announcement on it’s primary site.   \n\n\n\nAt the same time\, Canada is exploring further nuclear power stations to support the national strategy to develop Zero-Carbon Electricity where consideration of waste and decommissioning is an integral part of the regulatory design approval process. \n\n\n\nThe conference will be organized into three days of plenary sessions\, concurrent technical tracks and poster sessions with a business exhibition to showcase technology\, equipment and services. Optional post-conference technical tours will be available. More information to come!
