Objectives
The main objective of the FJOH-2022 edition is to help the schoolparticipants broaden their knowledge of the nuclear power assets
in the Energy Transition.

1. Introduction
1.1 The energy transition drivers................................................................................................................................................................................................................................ S. Qvist (Qvist Consulting)

2. Energy Scenario Planning Methods
2.1 Scenario planning and decision making methods in the energy industry, including the implicationsof climate-energy policies. ...................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................

H. Krijnen (NavIncerta)

2.2 Advanced nuclear systems at a country scale: electronuclear scenario study, analysis and prospects......

G. Martin (CEA)

3. Power Plants and Grid Stability
3.1 How to keep a power grid stable?.................................................................................................................................................................................................................. To be defined
3.2 From thermodynamics to electromagnetism to stable electricity production ................................................................................

V. Mazauric (Schneider Electric)

3.3 Balancing renewable electricity production and flexibility........................................................................................................................................... G. Vignal (RTE)

4. Flexible Operation of Nuclear Reactors
4.1 NPP Flexibility as seen from utilities: the EDF experience...................................................................................... ..............................................

P. Paulin (EDF)

4.2 Reactor load following: challenges for fuel and materials........................................................................................................................................

J. Zhang (Tractebel-Engie)

4.3 Advanced reactors for new applications ..........................................................................................................................................................................................

T. Abram (Manchester Univ)

5. Nuclear Power to X: Hydrogen Production, Process Heat, Synthetic Fuels
5.1 Hydrogen production from nuclear............................................................................................................................................................................................................... T. Jordan (KIT)
5.2 Expanding the use of nuclear to heat production…………………………………................................................................................................................... H. Tuomisto (Fortum)

The FJOH-2022 participants will learn about: The global factors driving the energy transition; The scenario planning method used by nuclear and nonnuclear companies, organisations or states to make strategicdecisions; The conditions for keeping an interconnected power gridstable while balancing variable demand and supply; How current nuclear reactors achieve flexible operation, what
the constraints and limitations are, and how future reactor
systems could do better; The expanded use of nuclear power for providing
decarbonized hydrogen, process heat, synthetic fuels, andother services.
As always with FJOH, the lectures will concentrate on theunderlying scientific and technical aspects of the various systems
discussed, backed with facts and figures, with nuclear as a focal
point. By the end of the course, the participants should be able toexplain how nuclear power can play a central role in various
integrated low-carbon energy systems.
FJOH-2022 includes plenary lectures, group discussions, seminars,and technical visits. The invited speakers are internationallyrecognized experts from leading universities, research anddevelopment laboratories and industry.

Description

The 27th session of the Frédéric Joliot/Otto Hahn (FJOH) Summer
School on “Nuclear Reactors Physics, Fuels, and Systems”, will be
dedicated to “Nuclear Power in the Energy Transition”. It will beheld in Aix-en-Provence from August 24th to September
2nd, 2022.
FJOH summer school is an advanced post-graduate-level course
aimed at junior as well as experienced scientists and engineers
engaged in the broad field of nuclear sciences, engineering andtechnologies.
Lecturers are invited from internationally leading universities andindustry. The School format encourages informal discussions andthe exchange of knowledge between lecturers and participants.
The Frédéric Joliot / Otto Hahn Summer School course represents
the continuation of the Frédéric Joliot Summer Schools on“Modern Reactor Physics and the Modelling of Complex
Systems”, which was created by CEA in 1995 to promoteknowledge in the field of reactor physics, in a broad sense, andthe international exchange of teachers, scientists, engineers andresearchers. Beginning in 2004, the scope of the School wasextended to include scientific issues related to nuclear fuels. Thevenues of the FJOH School sessions alternate between Karlsruhe
and Aix-en-Provence.
The program of each School session is defined by theInternational FJOH Scientific Board.

5.3 Nuclear batteries: a new way in energy................................................................................................................................................................. J. Buongiorno (MIT)5.4 A zero-carbon nuclear synthetic-fuel system.................................................................................................................................................... E. Ingersoll (Synergetic)
