NRTC. Rosatom and the Ministry of Innovation and Technology of Ethiopia signed a contract to conduct a feasibility study for a nuclear research and technology center (NRTC) that might be built in the country. Rosatom will analyze Ethiopia’s non-energy economic sectors to assess their need for the technology solutions that can be adopted at the NRTC. The parties will also make a list of potential users who will later form a market for the NRTC-based commercial products and services. Rosatom will identify possible sites for the center and conduct preliminary engineering surveys as part of site selection activities. The NRTC is Rosatom’s turnkey proposal integrating a research reactor, laboratories and, optionally, a multi-purpose irradiation facility and a nuclear medicine center. Also included in the proposal are the services for the development of nuclear infrastructure in the partner country, personnel training, fuel deliveries, maintenance and upgrade, spent fuel and radioactive waste management.
