World nuclear fuel cycle requirements 1983

Technical Report · Wed Feb 01 04:00:00 EST 1984

OSTI ID:5221503

This analysis report presents projections of uranium requirements (both yellowcake and enrichment services) and spent fuel discharges corresponding to the nuclear power plant capacity projections presented in Commercial Nuclear Power: Prospects for the United States and the World (DOE/EIA-0438) and the 1982 Annual Energy Outlook (DOE/EIA-0438 and the 1982 Annual Energy Outlook (DOE/EIA-0383(82)). Domestic projections are provided through the year 2020 and foreign projections through 2000. The domestic projections through 1990 are consistent with the integrated energy forecasts in the 1982 Annual Energy Outlook. Projections of nuclear power capacity beyond 1990 were not part of an integrated energy forecast; the methodology for their development is explained in Commercial Nuclear Power (DOE/EIA-0438). A range of estimates is provided, in order to capture the uncertainty inherent in such forward projections. This report is intended for Congress, Federal and State agencies, the nuclear industry, and the general public. It should be of particular interest to analysts involved in long-term planning for the disposition of radioactive waste generated from the nuclear fuel cycle.
