Brussels, 12 January 2024: nucleareurope is pleased to announce that Christopher Eckerberg has been appointed by the association’s General Assembly as nucleareurope’s President for a two-year period starting on 1 January 2024.   

“As more and more Member States are realizing that nuclear power is part of the solution to Europe’s energy challenges, nucleareurope has an increasingly important role to play in the dialogue between industry and policy makers.
