INREC’12 (inrec12.inrec-conf.org) is the second of a planned series of biennial meetings focusing on the practical aspects of carbon-free energy forms (nuclear and renewables). The meeting covers the synergetic integration of nuclear engineering with electrical power production, coupling to existing power grids and the design of smart grid systems, to intelligent instrumentation and control, and monitoring of processes relevant to radiation safety and nuclear safeguards. Research work addressing other carbon-free forms of energy, viz., wind, solar, geothermal, hydro, and ocean energy also fall within the scope of INREC'12.
