  • Annual Report 2020
    ANNUAL REPORT 2020 1 Photo credits 2 Foreword On 1 June 1960, the newly established Supply Agency of the European Atomic Energy Community (Euratom) started operations, ensuring that all users in the Community received a regular and equitable supply of ores and nuclear fuel. In 2020, the Agency celebrated 60 years of continued operations, demonstrating its resilience, its ability to adapt and its determination to modernise itself. When the COVID-19 crisis hit in March, we protected ESA’s most valuable asset: its staff. The lockdown united us in keeping the spirit of a common effort focused on the Agency’s core objectives and values. The transition to remote working was accompanied by introduction of new working methods, which allowed us to deliver in this challenging time on all the critical core processes: managing nuclear fuel contracts, facilitating the supply chain of medical radioisotopes and analysing market data. The meetings of the Advisory Committee and of the European Observatory on the Supply of Medical Radioisotopes, which were for the first time ever conducted in a remote format, enabled efficient communication and decision-making, as did many meetings with our partners and stakeholders. Our response to the limitations created by the coronavirus pandemic was to take it as an enforced opportunity to accelerate the adoption of new technologies to cut red tape. We expedited investment in the Noemi application that will, for years to come, securely host data from contracts for the supply of nuclear materials and related services. This new IT system will also greatly improve monitoring of the nuclear energy market and production of reports from aggregated data.
