Professor Charles Grant, Professor of Applied Nuclear Sciences, Director General, International Centre for Environmental & Nuclear Sciences, The University of the West Indies, Mona Campus, has been appointed as a member of the Technical Working Group on Nuclear Power Infrastructure (TWG-NPI) for the 2024-2027 term.

The Technical Working Group on Nuclear Power Infrastructure (TWG-NPI) is a group of experts from countries with established national nuclear power programmes (NNPPs) and those considering or starting such programmes, constituted to provide advice to the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) and thereby support the development and implementation of NNPPs.

The work of the TWG-NPI is focused on the development and implementation of NNPPs and gives due recognition to all relevant aspects of infrastructure, as described in the relevant IAEA documents for the introduction of nuclear power.

The TWG-NPI advice contributes to ensuring the development of sound, shared and comprehensive guidance and recommendations based on recent developments and best practices in infrastructure development for NNPPs, and contributes to the development of policies and strategies to be implemented and pursued by the IAEA in support of interested Member States.
