Cooperation between NCBJ (NOMATEN's home institution) and Synthos Green Energy in the area of new generation nuclear reactors
On February 4, 2022, the National Center for Nuclear Research (NCBJ) and Synthos Green Energy SA (SGE) signed a letter of intent on cooperation in the use of nuclear technology in industry and energy. The planned cooperation is related to the implementation by SGE of projects related to the construction of small modular light-water reactors (LW-SMR) for the production of electricity and possibly municipal heat and the construction of small modular high-temperature gas-cooled reactors (HTGR). The latter would be oriented towards cogeneration, i. e. industrial heat generation and hydrogen production.
NOMATEN and National Centre for Nuclear Research established research cooperation with Mercedes Benz
NOMATEN Centre of Excellence, will perform the scientific expertise in the field of materials research for Mercedes Benz Manufacturing Poland that runs the engines and batteries plant in Jawor. This research will be focused on materials issues concerning the tools for engine’s mechanical processing. Director Thomas Kaiser - production, maintenance and facility manager at Mercedes Benz Manufacturing Poland - joined NOMATEN’s Industrial Advisors Network.

2021 in numbers: 19 new hires, 26 scientific events, 12 papers in top periodics
The Center of Excellence has now become an actual center, with 5 research groups in action. The second year of our existence has been one of quick growth in spite of the global pandemic crisis, which has affected research very much. The lack of international mobility and exchanges has so to speak been substituted with hard work in the offices and laboratories. For NOMATEN, this is a well-working recipe as the steps to build up a real research environment do depend on the individual and joint effort of our staff.
We should also acknowledge the institutional support of the National Center for Nuclear Research, hosting us as an operationally independent department. Likewise, the Teaming partners CEA (France) and VTT (Finland) have been – however virtual – supportive and encouraging external “team members”. The CoE is firmly backed by the funding of the Foundation for Polish Science and is under the umbrella of an International Scientific Committee headed by prof. Sergio Bertolucci.
