South Africa is working on a plan to replace a nuclear research reactor set to be retired around 2030 that produces medical isotopes.
The Nuclear Energy Corp. of South Africa and the Department of Energy are working with other parties on a multi-purpose research reactor that would take over from the current plant that has been in use since 1965, state-owned Necsa said in a reply to questions.
