NDA's Nuclear Research Portfolio (NRP) for Enabling Decommissioning, Waste Management and Remediation (EDWM&R)

Eden Nuclear and Environment and our partners are delighted to have been awarded a place on the Nuclear Decommissioning Authority's Research Portfolio Framework (2024-2026 with two 12 month extension options) for "Enabling Decommissioning, Waste Management and Remediation (ED WM&R)".

Our team, which includes Cyclife UK Ltd, Gardiner & Theobald LLP, Hydrock Consulting Ltd, IfM Engage, Integrated Decision Management Ltd, Lucideon Limited, Onet Technologies CN, RAND Europe Community Interest Company, WSP UK Limited and the University of Bristol, are looking forward to supporting NDA on this important Framework over the next four years.

The framework contract is intended to provide research and development to support the development and implementation of the Integrated Waste Management (IWM), Site Decommissioning and Remediation (SDR) and Critical Enabler (CE) strategies as defined by the NDA strategy. Combining research and development for these areas into one framework contract allows cross-over opportunities between themes e.g. characterisation, sustainable decommissioning techniques and practices, records/knowledge management and innovation. The topics covered include:

  • Integrated Waste Management, which includes waste management data and information for planning and preparation, waste treatment and packaging, waste storage, waste transport and waste disposal;
  • Site Decommissioning and Remediation, which includes approaches to prioritisation of activities, characterisation approaches and technologies, asset management, site interim and end states, land quality management and site stewardship; and,
  • Critical Enablers, which underpin the development of NDA Strategy across the critical enablers identified in NDA strategy 4.


Dr Paul Gilchrist, Managing Director of Eden Nuclear and Environment Ltd, said:

"We are extremely delighted to have the opportunity to build upon our last eight years of work and continue our support to the NDA's in their new NRP Framework Enabling Decommissioning, Waste Management and Remediation. This framework is vitally important to the delivery of the UK's civil nuclear decommissioning mission, and we will utilise the deep and diverse expertise from our team and our new partners to support the NDA over the next four years."
