This Strategic Research Agenda (SRA) has been prepared by the EERA-JPNM based on a wide consultation with the scientific and also industrial community involved, to identify the research lines to be pursued in the EU to ensure that suitable structural and fuel materials are available for the design, licensing, construction and safe long-term operation of GenIV nuclear systems. Emphasis has been put on the fast neutron spectrum systems considered in ESNII, namely SFR, HLM-cooled systems (ADS and LFR), and GFR. However, links with other GenIV systems, namely (V)HTR, SCWR and MSR have been clearly stablished and effort has been devoted to identify GenIV materials research issues that are also of common interest for other nuclear and also non-nuclear energy technologies. This was done with a view to optimising the use of available resources, whenever possible, by joining forces with other research communities. Importantly, the content of this SRA is fully consistent with other relevant stra
