Accelerate the energy transition

Heloise Goutte (CEA, France)

The time to ramp up our already substantial efforts to transition our energy systems to low-carbon energy sources is now. The growing climate emergency and recent energy crisis have removed any remaining doubt. The CEA’s integrated vision for energy underlines the importance of a low-carbon energy mix, combining nuclear and renewable energies. Research and development in these areas are essential to advance these technologies and meet sustainability targets. Accelerating efforts requires optimizing synergies between nuclear and non-nuclear technologies, leveraging high-performance computing, simulation tools and experiments… This presentation will illustrate these points by highlighting key innovations and strategies for a successful energy transition.
