Conference Objectives
Building upon the success of FSEP 2023, FSEP 2025 is again being constructed with Sponsors and Exhibitors in mind. The previous conferences were supported by prominent organizations within the nuclear community and have attracted representatives from Canada, USA, India, Germany, Korea, UK, and Romania.
This 2.5-day conference will focus on the latest work and information in the key areas of fire safety and emergency preparedness. New technologies and a renewed focus on nuclear energy has come with new fire protection and emergency preparedness challenges. This forum provides an opportunity to discuss these changes in the interest of improving fire safety and emergency preparedness in both new and operating nuclear power plants (NPPs), as well as Small Modular Reactors, research facilities, decommissioned facilities, uranium production and mining facilities.
The FSEP 2025 Conference will emphasize the sharing and exchange of information between the nuclear industry, fire protection and emergency preparedness specialists, suppliers and service providers, government representatives and officials, community, fire protection and Emergency Preparedness students and other stakeholders in fire protection and emergency management in the nuclear industry.
This premier international event is expected to attract a diverse audience of over one hundred specialists from Canada, the USA, Europe, and Asia, with over fifty plenary and technical presentations. We believe that FSEP 2025 is an important event, providing key educational information and an opportunity to network with other nuclear professionals focused on helping the nuclear industry meet their safety objectives. The previous event hosted 140 delegates from around the world.
FSEP 2025 is a Canadian Nuclear Society (CNS) sponsored event. Proceeds from the event are utilized by the CNS to advance the understanding of the nuclear industry.
