NRG PALLAS and Curium continue cooperation and expand production of nuclear medicine
29 May 2024
NRGIPALLAS and Curium have signed a long-term agreement to expand the current cooperation to include the production of lutetium-177 (Lu-177). The treatment isotope Lutetium will be added to the products already produced in Petten. This will enable Curium to supply about 70,000 doses of Lu-177 annually, which will help about 14,000 patients per year.

Advancing Nuclear Medicine
NRG develops, radiates and ensures worldwide distribution of nuclear medicines.
We are the global market leader in producing nuclear isotopes (medical isotopes). Every day, more than 30,000 patients worldwide depend on our medical substances for their treatment. These medical isotopes are used for medical imaging techniques (PET and SPECT scans). Doctors then use them in the treatment of cancer and heart and vascular disease for example.
Ensuring Nuclear Performance
Safe, reliable and efficient nuclear technology.
Objective expertise. We can provide independent proof that an installation and process is in order. We guarantee nuclear top performance. Based on our knowledge and experience, we use nuclear solutions for people and the planet.

30,000 patients a day
Our reactor in Petten is responsible for producing 35% of all medical isotopes worldwide and for 65% in Europe. This makes our reactor in Petten the biggest producer and supplier of isotopes in the world. With the development of isotopes from Petten, we help 30,000 people a day have a better life. This might be by detecting and treating cancer or for other disorders.

Radioactive Waste
A nuclear power plant, a hospital, an oil platform, research institutes: they all produce waste, which is radioactive; sometimes a lot, sometimes a little. NRG develops techniques to accurately measure the radioactivity and composition of waste. NRG also develops ways to transport radioactive waste so that it does not end up in the environment. In an efficient and safe way.

Radiation protection
Everyone is exposed to natural radioactivity from space and the Earth. Besides this natural radiation on Earth, we also have radiation from radioactive materials, for example hospitals and nuclear reactors. To protect employees, NRG explores new types of dosimeters which analyse the amount of radiation.

Do you know the difference? True or False about: Nuclear Energy.
TOO EXPENSIVE
"The investment in a new nuclear power plant never outweighs the costs; the construction and maintenance of a nuclear power plant is too expensive and before it is operational there are already better alternatives available."
DANGEROUS
"Radioactive waste is ALWAYS dangerous"
NO SOLUTION
"Radioactive waste is dangerous and there is no good solution for it."
CLIMATE GOALS
"Without nuclear energy, it is almost impossible to make the Netherlands climate neutral by 2050."
