RAICo will appoint up to five RAICo Fellows who have innovative projects that offer the potential to address onsite challenges at Sellafield, Culham (UKAEA), or elsewhere across the NDA estate. Each Fellow will be appointed for approximately 12 months, awarded a grant of up to £10,000, which can be used to support travel and consumables.
As part of the award, RAICo will provide links to challenge owners at their sites and will support the Fellows with commercialisation training. Fellows will be required to spend at least one month in this period at the RAICo1 facility in Whitehaven, Cumbria, where they can test their technologies in environments that replicate those across the nuclear decommissioning estate.
The grant is designed to support researchers in developing promising technologies that can be applied to real-world nuclear decommissioning and fusion engineering challenges in support of RAICo’s Purpose.
