EU Nuke Research Budget

The European Commission has put forward a €9.8 billion budget proposal

for the EU’s next nuclear research programme, Euratom, giving a huge
boost to fusion research. The next edition of Euratom, starting in 2028,
will be almost five times bigger than the current €1.98 billion nuclear
research programme. Most of this funding will go towards fusion energy
projects, fuelling Europe’s ambition to become the first to develop and
commercialise the technology. A peculiarity of the Euratom programmes is
that they are legally required to run for five years, which puts them out
of step with the seven-year EU budget cycle. So, it is now usual for each
programme to have a two-year extension to keep it in step. The present
proposal sets aside €6.7 billion from 2028 and 2032, with the extension
bringing the total to €9.8 billion.
