Introduction: The Fifth Framework Programme (FP5) sets out the priorities for the European Union's research, technological development and demonstration (RTD) activities for the period These priorities have been selected on the basis of a set of common criteria reflecting the major concerns of increasing industrial competitiveness and the quality of life for European citizens. The Fifth Framework Programme has two distinct parts: the European Community (EC) framework programme covering research, technological development and demonstration activities; and the Euratom framework programme covering research and training activities in the nuclear sector.
Budget : A budget of 13,700 million euro has been agreed for the implementation of the European Community section of FP5. Combined with the 1,260 million euro allocated to the Euratom programme, this should bring the global budget for research during to 14,960 million euro. (This represents an increase, in absolute terms, of 4.61% compared to the Fourth Framework Programme.)
Thematic Programmes

The specific programme of research and training in the field of nuclear energy implements the section of the Fifth Framework Programme covered by the European Atomic Energy Community (Euratom) Treaty.The aim of the Nuclear Energy programme is to help exploit the full potential of nuclear energy, both fusion and fission, in a sustainable manner, by making current technologies even safer and more economical, and by exploring promising new concepts.Research activities in the non-nuclear energy sector are implemented under the "Energy, Environment and Sustainable Development" (EESD) programme of the European Community Fifth RTD Framework Programme. Programme structure and contents.
The Nuclear Energy Programme has the following distinct components: two key actions, one on controlled thermonuclear fusion and the other on nuclear fission, and generic research on radiological sciences. These activities are complemented by support for research infrastructures together with other supporting activities (eg, training).
3.1. Key Action: Nuclear Fusion: Indirect actions relating to controlled thermonuclear fusion are carried out under the contracts of the Association, the ERDA agreement, quadripartite cooperation agreement between the Community, Japan, the Russian Federation and the USA concerning the engineering design activities of ITER. Nuclear fusion research is already fully integrated at a European level. Fusion is not discussed further on in this Guide, as there are no calls for proposals in the field of nuclear fusion except for Marie Curie fellowships.
3.2. Key Action: Nuclear Fission: Rationale. Nuclear fission energy contributes about 33% of the electricity supply in the Union. The continued safe and efficient use of this energy source is essential for securing a proper return on a large capital investment. Prolonging the safe operational life spans of existing reactors would enhance their competitiveness and have further substantial economic and environmental benefits.
The main objectives of the RTDT activities on nuclear fission are to enhance the safety of Europe's nuclear installations and improve the competitiveness of Europe's industry. Within these broader objectives, the more detailed aims are to ensure the protection of workers and the public from radiation and the safe and effective management and final disposal of radioactive waste. Further aims are to explore more innovative concepts that are sustainable and have potential longer term economic, safety, health and environmental benefits and to contribute towards maintaining a high level of expertise and competence on nuclear technology and safety.
