We are proud to announce this year's CEU doctoral student award recipients in the Department of Environmental Sciences and Policy:

Who will supply the future of nuclear? Future supply of nuclear reactors, power plants and the fuel cycle may be more concentrated than today’s supply of oil and gas

By building a dataset of nuclear cooperation agreements from last 15 years the authors of a recent article published in Energy Policy show that Russia is the supplier in about 50% of all agreements related to nuclear reactors, power plants, and the fuel cycle. France, the US, China, Korea and Japan together account for another 40% of key nuclear technologies.
