The project, launched in the summer of 2019, explored the transmutation of elements of radioactive waste as a possibility for better management of spent fuel from nuclear power plants.

Energy Minister Csaba Lantos said the research could contribute to making nuclear energy more sustainable.

Meanwhile in Szeged, Infrastructure inaugurated at Science Park

Road and other infrastructure investments supported by HUF 9.5bn in government funding were inaugurated at the University of Szeged's 85-hectare Science Park.

Energy Minister Csaba Lantos said the investments would support expanded cooperation in innovation and foster connections between global corporate sector leaders and local research centres.

Laszlo Rovo, the university's rector, noted that the park was home to the ELI ALPS laser research institute and a plant of German defence industry company Rheinmetall.

Construction work on the infrastructure took around 18 months to complete. The general contractor for the project was a consortium of Colas and Delut.
