<\/div>O<\/span>n 30 June 2026, the Spanish Nuclear Society held the technical conference \u201cResilience of nuclear power plants facing new climate and power system challenges\u201d<\/strong> at the Instituto de la Ingenier\u00eda de Espa\u00f1a in Madrid. The event brought together representatives from international organisations, utilities, regulators, engineering companies, manufacturers, technology suppliers and the nuclear industry to discuss how the operating environment of nuclear power plants is changing and which technical responses are being developed to preserve safety and reliability<\/strong> in a more uncertain context.<\/span><\/p>\n

The guided idea of the conference was shared by all presentations: resilience is not improvised when an emergency occurs<\/strong>. It is built beforehand through design, engineering, training, operating experience, safety culture, technological modernisation and cooperation between organisations. In the current context this approach is particularly relevant. Climate change is increasing the frequency and severity of certain extreme events; the energy transition is reshaping the structure of the power system; the growing share of variable renewable generation requires new stability and flexibility capabilities; and digitalisation offers new possibilities while introducing additional technical and organisational challenges.<\/span><\/p>\n
