CORONA Establishment of a Regional Center of Competence for VVER Technology and Nuclear Applications

Coordinator: KOZLODUY NPP PLC (BG)

The essence of the project is to provide a special purpose structure for training and qualification of personnel for serving VVER technology as one of nuclear power options used in EU. Such approach should allow unifying existing VVER related training schemes according to IAEA standards and commonly accepted criteria recognized in EU.

About Seventh Framework Programme (2007–2013)

The Seventh Framework Programme (FP7) ran from 2007 to 2013 and was the EU's main research-funding instrument of that period. It mobilised roughly €50 billion across cooperation projects, ERC frontier grants, Marie Curie fellowships, capacity-building actions and Euratom research. FP7 closed to new calls in 2013 but its projects continued for years after under their original grant agreements.

Co-funding: the European Union contributes €970k toward a total project budget of €2.2M — a funding rate of 43%, with the remainder covered by the consortium partners. The project runs over approximately 3 years from 2011-12-01 to 2014-11-30.
