An overview of the first years of CNEA, looking towards the future; Una mirada a la CNEA de los primeros anios, con vistas al futuro

Abstract

In the framework of growing worries on the future of energy availability for our country, a nuclear activity reactivation plan has been recently announced, with remarkable commitment of national authorities, positive reception by almost all national actors, and important investments to be made. There is a certain resemblance between the current situation and that of the period when nuclear activity was launched, from 1950 to 1970, regarding the variety of the projects to be faced and the amount of resources needed to undertake them. Many of the elements crucial to the success of a nucleo-electric plan continue to be the same, in spite of the fact that they might elicit other courses of action, in the light of the significant changes suffered by our country, the world, and the nuclear activity since then. Looking back, the work accomplished in that first phase can be considered to be successful. It was based on the search of technological autonomy and on the conception of nuclear activities as promoters of development and modernization of the whole industrial sector. These premises led the continuous efforts made towards the development of the human resources, needed not only for nuclear activities but also for other sectors  More>>

There is a certain resemblance between the current situation and that of the period when nuclear activity was launched, from 1950 to 1970, regarding the variety of the projects to be faced and the amount of resources needed to undertake them. Many of the elements crucial to the success of a nucleo-electric plan continue to be the same, in spite of the fact that they might elicit other courses of action, in the light of the significant changes suffered by our country, the world, and the nuclear activity since then. Looking back, the work accomplished in that first phase can be considered to be successful. It was based on the search of technological autonomy and on the conception of nuclear activities as promoters of development and modernization of the whole industrial sector. These premises led the continuous efforts made towards the development of the human resources, needed not only for nuclear activities but also for other sectors of a growing country, even in the midst of continuous political, economical and institutional crisis. Local providers were developed for a growing number of items, brought forward by the opening of the 'technological packages' involved by major projects, thus achieving a desired high level of national participation in the total work. In this context of similarities and differences with the past, the aim of this work is to revisit the leading ideas that sustained these developments and achievements. (author) [Spanish] En el marco de la preocupacion existente sobre el futuro de la oferta energetica nacional, se ha anunciado recientemente un plan de reactivacion de la actividad nuclear, del cual se destaca el compromiso por parte de las autoridades nacionales, la acogida positiva por parte de la casi totalidad de los sectores de la vida nacional, y la magnitud de las inversiones anunciadas. La situacion actual, la variedad de proyectos a encarar y la magnitud de los recursos requeridos, guardan cierta semejanza con el periodo de lanzamiento de la actividad nuclear en las decadas del 50 al 70. Muchos de los elementos cruciales para dar continuidad a un plan nucleoelectrico siguen siendo los mismos de entonces, independientemente de que sean otras las acciones que puedan llegar a demandar, debido a los cambios significativos ocurridos desde entonces en nuestro pais, el mundo y la actividad nuclear. En perspectiva, el trabajo realizado en esa primera etapa puede considerarse exitoso. Se baso en la busqueda de la autonomia tecnologica y en la concepcion de la actividad nuclear como impulsora del desarrollo y modernizacion del aparato industrial. Aun en un contexto de continuas crisis politicas, economicas e institucionales, se llevo adelante un accionar en pos de la formacion de los recursos humanos necesarios no solo para la actividad nuclear sino tambien para un pais en crecimiento. Se desarrollaron proveedores locales para conjuntos crecientes de items resultantes de la apertura del paquete tecnologico de los grandes proyectos, alcanzandose en las obras realizadas un alto porcentaje de participacion nacional. En este contexto de similitudes y diferencias con el pasado, se planteo como objetivo de este trabajo reseniar las ideas rectoras de ese desarrollo. (autor)}
