Description

The outstanding performance of CANDU fuel is attributed to a well rounded development program that combined sound science with excellent engineering. Economic analysis and technology transfer were integrated into the program to ensure successful commercialization. The CANDU fuel program provides useful lessons that are being ignored by policy-makers in their desire to exploit our world-class resources in science and technology to benefit the Canadian economy
