icon HISTORY

Minimisation of highly enriched Uranium in the civil nuclear fuel cycle is a long standing effort. In its last phase, the most difficult task is tackled: Conversion of High Performance Research Reactors.


icon THE CONSORTIUM

HERACLES comprises all major European research reactor fuel developers: Operators of high performance neutron sources as well as fuel manufacturers. See who we are and what we do.


icon OUR PARTNERS

Nuclear non-proliferation is not just a mission for us. It is an effort that includes the whole world. The European Commission, US Department of Energy and many others support our work.
