60 Years of U: Perspectives on resources, demand, and the evolving role of nuclear energy
Recent years have seen growing global interest in nuclear energy and rising confidence in the sector. For the first time since the early 2000s, there is renewed optimism about the industry’s future. This change is driven by several major factors: geopolitical developments that highlight the need for secure energy supplies, a stronger focus on resilient energy systems, national commitments to decarbonization, and rising demand for clean and reliable electricity.

A simple approximate scheme of calculating the variations of fusion activation-induced radioactive inventories with reactor operating conditions (power and time) by scaling equations is formulated. Application of the scheme to evaluate radiological dose-contributing activation products for HT-9 ferritic steel first wall shows decent agreements with numerical results.
