FIND Project
Future Instrumentation and coNtrol based on innovative methods
and Disruptive technologies
for higher safety level
WHAT IS FIND ?
FIND is a groundbreaking project that brings modern technology to nuclear power plant safety
and monitoring. The project develops smart detection systems - like structural
health
monitoring and digital twins - for nuclear facilities, making them safer and
more
efficient.
Led by ASNR, France's nuclear safety regulator, FIND's
technologies are
designed to be both
cost-effective and minimally intrusive. The project's innovations will help power plants
operate more safely, whilst reducing maintenance costs and worker exposure to radiation.
This contributes to the safety of nuclear
power plants and other
nuclear facilities,
in the
context of their long-term operation.
