Outlook for Nuclear Energy in Africa
Africa faces rising energy demands and energy security and climate challenges. The IAEA’s new publication, developed for South Africa’s 2025 G20 Presidency, highlights nuclear energy as a transformative solution. With only one operational nuclear power plant on the continent and over 500 million people lacking electricity, nuclear power offers a clean, reliable and scalable path to energy security and sustainable development. The publication explores the growing interest in nuclear energy across more than 20 African countries, the role of small modular reactors, and the continent’s strategic uranium resources. It emphasizes the importance of nuclear infrastructure development, financing, regional cooperation and IAEA support to Member States. Case studies from Egypt, Ghana, Kenya and Nigeria showcase progress and potential in the development of nuclear energy on the continent. With innovative financing and international collaboration, nuclear energy can help to power Africa’s future and ambitions.

Assessment of Radioactive Contamination, Exposures and Countermeasures in Urban Environments
IAEA TECDOC Series No.  2096

This TECDOC presents the outcomes of international model validation exercises aimed at improving the performance of models used to assess radioactive contamination in urban environments. Building on the work of Working Group 2 under the MODARIA I programme, this intercomparison introduced models of greater complexity. The exercises addressed various scenarios, including dispersion and deposition events, short- and long-term redistribution of contaminants following deposition, and the evaluation of potential countermeasures or remediation strategies to reduce human exposure.

Benchmarking Current Practices in Probabilistic Fault Displacement Hazard Analysis for Nuclear Installations
IAEA TECDOC Series No.  2092

This publication explores the findings of an IAEA-designed exercise focused on understanding probabilistic fault displacement hazard analysis (PFDHA) for nuclear installation sites. The IAEA benchmarking exercise examines fault displacement hazard curves from various earthquake scenarios, including the 2016 Kumamoto (magnitude 7.0), Norcia (magnitude 6.5), and the 2019 Le Teil (magnitude 4.9) earthquakes. These events represent different fault types: strike-slip, normal, and reverse faulting and have documented fault displacements. This publication aims to share key results and insights from the PFDHA exercise, comparing hazard outcomes and explaining the factors behind observed differences. This will help Member States assess the compatibility of current fault displacement models with the earthquake scenarios that will possibly be used in nuclear safety evaluations.
