ANCHORS contributes to the safety assessment after the closure of geological disposal sites. It is part of the European partnership EURAD-2 (2024-2029), which brings together stakeholders in the research on radioactive waste management.

Crisis communication has become an integral part of the Ukrainian media space long before the full-scale invasion. Its importance was acutely felt in the spring of 2020, during the global COVID-19 pandemic. At that time, the media faced the need to convey information from official sources to the public in a prompt, objective, and responsible manner. The key task was to maintain public trust, prevent panic and ensure compliance with life-saving recommendations.

On March 19, 2025, the largest and most significant economic forum in the country, "Lithuanian Davos 2025," took place, traditionally gathering leaders from business, politics, and society. During the forum, there were not only standard sessions focusing on economic development, investment potential, accessibility of financing, and real estate market development, but also special sessions dedicated to the development of Lithuania's energy sector, defense industry. This 18th event featured a presentation "The Benefits of Small Nuclear Reactors: Where is the Value for the State?" by Dr. Tadas Kaliatka, the chief research associate at the Nuclear Equipment Safety Laboratory of the Lithuanian Energy Institute.

In April, the world traditionally remembers one of the worst man-made disasters in human history - the Chornobyl accident in 1986. This tragedy not only left a deep mark in the hearts of millions of people, but also changed approaches to nuclear safety around the world. But almost 40 years later, Chornobyl is once again in the spotlight - this time because of a threat that arose not from a technical failure but from armed aggression.

Concrete is the primary material used in waste management, making it essential for the concrete industry to develop more environmentally friendly and effective concrete formulations for handling radioactive and hazardous waste. This need is relevant for all countries around the Baltic Sea and beyond.

On 4th of June, 2024, members of EUROfusion gathered in Kaunas, the second-largest city of Lithuania for General Assembly, the quarterly meeting of the decision-making body of European consortium for fusion research, where progress towards realising fusion energy is discussed between the consortium members.

In many countries, Probabilistic Safety Assessments (PSA) form an integral part of the methods used to analyse the safety of nuclear power plants. Accordingly, a multitude of publications offers guidance on the use and development of PSA, e. g. those published by the International Atom Energy Agency or the Nuclear Energy Agency. 

Tihange 2 entered in so-called Post Operational Phase (POP), during which the licensee prepares notably its safe dismantling.

In the context of the energy transition, there is a progressive reduction in the electricity produced from fossil fuels. Recognizing the dynamic nature of the energy transition, an assessment of the sustainability performance was conducted in frame of ECOSENS project, comparatively, encompassing the key energy technologies driving this transition—namely, intermittent renewables (wind and solar), nuclear, hydropower, and natural gas.
 

NRA analyzed the results of the heating test on flame-retardant electrical cables made of thermoplastic (TP) and thermosetting (TS) materials (i.e., TP/TS hybrid cable), recently conducted by University of Tsukuba to improve the knowledge of the electrical insulation performance of cables under elevated temperature conditions caused by nearby fires.
