核能研究所(INER)-Institute of NuclearEnergy Research

INER has 40 years experience on research and applications in the field of atomic energy. We have accumulated needed technologies on the areas of maintenance of safety operations of nuclear power plants, protection of radiation safety, process/deposition of radioactive wastes, application of plasma technologies, as well as development and applications of nuclear medicines. Hence, we have made contributions on the aspects concerning the safety maintenance of domestic nuclear power plants, the uses of nuclear medicines in major hospitals, and even the applications of radiation to a variety of related civilian industries. Recently, INER has expanded researches to renewable and new energy territories based on the developed technologies accumulated earlier from conducting nuclear energy researches. Preliminary results have been achieved with respect to solar photovoltaics, wind power, cellulosic alcohol, and fuel cells. In short, INER currently is actively directing toward being able to simultaneously taking care of energy safety, economic development and environmental protection topics, so as to broaden the extensive applications of energy technologies. This is aimed to use the research results to bring welfares to the people as well as feedback to the society and the country.
