[Promoted] Dr Bismark Tyobeka: Nuclear energy is part of our future

Answers to questions regarding our future prosperity are needed, and the North-West University is committed to finding sustainable solutions to South Africa’s energy requirements.

The NWU is also the only university in South Africa with a PhD programme in Nuclear Engineering. The aim of the chair is to conduct world-class research and contribute to the training of highly qualified nuclear engineers, scientists and technologists to serve the needs of the country. According to him, nuclear energy will play an integral part in South Africa’s energy package, together with coal and renewable energy sources such as wind and solar.

Dr Tyobeka, who was recently nominated to serve as South Africa’s representative on the Senior Industry Advisory Panel of the Generation IV International Forum , goes on to say that a systematic and cautious approach to implementing “new” energy sources is best in order to not disrupt the economies of developing countries:

“It would bankrupt governments if we do not allow other players to come in and invest in nuclear projects in the form of public-private partnerships.”
