Australian Nuclear Association

The Australian Nuclear Association Inc (ANA) is an independent incorporated scientific institution which promotes the knowledge and practice of the peaceful, safe and effective use of nuclear science and technology to benefit people, science and the environment.

ANA supports the use of nuclear science and technology in Australia, including nuclear techniques in research, industry and medicine; research reactors as a source of neutrons for research and production of radioisotopes; and nuclear power plants to produce electricity.

ANA strongly supports the use of nuclear power as reliable, affordable and low carbon generator of electricity and as a low carbon source of heat for industry. Adding nuclear power to Australia’s energy future will help meet our international obligations on carbon emissions, improve energy security and contribute to our economic future. Australia can benefit from current and emerging advanced reactor designs as well as from the considerable international experience accumulated in regulating and operating nuclear power reactors, taking into account safety, environmental, technical, economic and social factors.  The ANA supports the removal of Federal and State legislative nuclear prohibitions so that nuclear power can be considered on its merits.

ANA strongly supports establishment of a national radioactive waste management facility for the management of radioactive waste and the disposal of low level radioactive waste from all Commonwealth agencies, States and Territories.
