The Emirates Nuclear Energy Company (ENEC) is prioritising the development of local Emirati talent to help lead the UAE Peaceful Nuclear Energy Programme.
ENEC representatives filled half of the available positions at the 2025 UAE Section elections of the American Nuclear Society (ANS).
Established in November 2019, the UAE Section of ANS has played a crucial role in promoting scientific and engineering excellence in the civil nuclear industry, helping to accelerate innovation, collaboration, and professional growth.
The Section works to enhance public understanding of nuclear energy, build professional networks, and collaborate with industry and scientific organisations that share similar objectives.
It is also focused on expanding membership, supporting the creation of new branches, and providing a platform for students and professionals to exchange knowledge and ideas - reinforcing the UAE as a hub for nuclear expertise and leadership.
With ENEC professionals taking on key leadership roles, the Section is shaping the next chapter of the country’s civil nuclear industry. As the UAE cements its position as a global player in civil nuclear energy, this new generation of experts will drive innovation, strengthen international collaboration, and ensure the long-term success of the UAE Peaceful Nuclear Energy Programme.
