Executive Director PALLAS Programma

Project Director NRG PALLAS Programma Reactor The NRG PALLAS Programma reactor is one of Europe’s most strategically important nuclear infrastructure project. Located at the Energy & Health Campus in Petten. The NRG PALLAS reactor will secure a long-term production of medical isotopes used daily in the diagnosis and treatment of hundreds of thousands of patients worldwide. While simultaneously strengthening the Dutch and European nuclear capability, innovation, and strategic autonomy. The NRG PALLAS Programma is entering the most critical phase of the project: The transition from design and licensing into integrated industrial execution, construction, commissioning, and operational readiness.
