Message:On behalf of “Japan and UAE Joint Forum on Nuclear Power Generation”(Light Water Reactorand High Temperature Gas-cooled Reactor) to be held on April 8 (Tuesday), 2014 in Abu Dhabi,
UAE, we have great honor to send you the invitation to the forum held at InterContinental Abu
Dhabi.
The nuclear power accident at the Fukushima Daiichi has heavily impacted nuclear powerindustries worldwide. Since then almost all the nuclear power plants in Japan, with the exceptionof one, have been shut down. Currently, what are considered to be the most stringent of nuclear
laws and regulations are being formulated and will be enforced in the near future. Meanwhile,for the rest of the world, the expectation of nuclear power as a reliable and clean energy source
remain very high.
We would like to introduce the latest Japanese Nuclear Power Generation in Japan and exchange
opinions with officials about the possibility of collaboration with Middle East in the future.
We hope this forum will act as a stepping stone toward the next stage.
