Generic Nuclear Robotics Architecture (GNRA)

The Generic Nuclear Robotics Architecture (GNRA) is a new standard proposal, currently at its initial states of creation, aiming to standardise the design, development, maintenance, and overall Through Life Capability Management of robotic systems for nuclear decommissioning and nuclear energy sector applications.

The GNRA standard aims to cover the following primary system types:

• Platforms
• Simulators
• Digital Twins

We are researching and creating the initial structure of the GNRA documents, covering both the technical aspects and overall long-term management of the standard itself.

The programme was initially funded by the UKAEA in collaboration with TEPCO Japan, under the LongOps programme.
