The South African Nuclear Energy Corporation (Necsa) supports the country adopting small modular reactors (SMRs) and believes that it can play a key role in this process. So affirms Necsa Group Executive: Power and Industry Sengiphile Simelane, in an exclusive interview with Engineering News. Necsa is mandated to conduct research in the sphere of nuclear energy. Based at Pelindaba, west of Pretoria, Necsa owns and operates the SAFARI-1 research reactor, which is used for both research and the production of radioisotopes (for industrial but especially medical use).
