Challenges for the nuclear safety of the deregulation of electricity markets; Defis pour la surete nucleaire de la dereglementation des marches de l'electricite

Abstract

Eurosafe 2000 was organised around two round tables on the first day and four seminars on the second day. The first round table dealt with general aspects of deregulation including the economic constraints and the special challenges arising during transition from regulated to deregulated structures. The second round table focussed on technical and organisational safety issues which are directly or indirectly related to the changes introduced by deregulation. The four seminars hold in order to provide opportunities for comparing experiences and learning about recent activities of IPSN, GRS and their partners in the European Union and Eastern Europe: Seminar 1 (Nuclear installation safety, assessment and analysis): assessment of the flooding incident at the Blayais nuclear power plant; PSA data base, comparison of the French and German approach; assessment of the Balakovo fire probabilistic study and elaboration of a guide for reviewing fire PSA; comprehensive technical assessment of an advanced German PWR by PSA - objectives and main results; PSA approach for the safety assessment of low-power and shutdown states; correlation of initiating events with the PSA level-2 results; safety assessment for fission products tests in the Phebus reactor; use of NPP simulators for applied human factor studies; assessment of the  More>>

The second round table focussed on technical and organisational safety issues which are directly or indirectly related to the changes introduced by deregulation. The four seminars hold in order to provide opportunities for comparing experiences and learning about recent activities of IPSN, GRS and their partners in the European Union and Eastern Europe: Seminar 1 (Nuclear installation safety, assessment and analysis): assessment of the flooding incident at the Blayais nuclear power plant; PSA data base, comparison of the French and German approach; assessment of the Balakovo fire probabilistic study and elaboration of a guide for reviewing fire PSA; comprehensive technical assessment of an advanced German PWR by PSA - objectives and main results; PSA approach for the safety assessment of low-power and shutdown states; correlation of initiating events with the PSA level-2 results; safety assessment for fission products tests in the Phebus reactor; use of NPP simulators for applied human factor studies; assessment of the 'deterministic realistic method' applied to large LOCA analysis; assessment of the feasibility of an improvement programme enabling operation of units 3 and 4 of Kozloduy nuclear power plant. Seminar 2 (nuclear installation safety, research): PHEBUS 2K project on severe accidents; current status of the COCOSYS development; fission product modeling in ASTEC; Euratom Framework Programme (FP) research in reactor safety: main achievements of FP- 4 (1994-1998), some preliminary results of FP-5 (1998-2002) and prospects for beyond 2002; development of coupled systems of 3D neutronics and fluid-dynamic system codes and their application for safety analyses. Seminar 3 (environment and radiation protection): implementations of the variability in critical group doses for the control of radionuclides releases; campaign of environmental radioactivity measurements in the vicinity of La Hague made by European mobile laboratories - both a technical and sociological experience; contribution of some leading radioprotection societies to the current considerations with regard to the possible improvement of the ICRP policy system; decommissioning and dismantling of nuclear power plants: radiation protection experience in Germany; epidemiology of French nuclear workers within the IARC study. Seminar 4 (waste management): the Mont Terri rock laboratory, Switzerland; prediction of hydro-mechanical responses of a long-term pump test at the Sellafield site; modelling of water-rock interactions in deep ground-waters: equilibrium and perturbations; modelling of saturation and swelling effects in clays under different saline conditions; qualification of clay barriers in underground repository systems; integrating structural, hydraulic and geochemical evidence: a step towards understanding fluid flow through clay-rich formations; application of geostatistical methods to long-term safety analyses for radioactive waste repositories; major results and lessons learned from performance assessments on spent fuel geological disposal: the SPA project; repository incidents in Germany and abroad: what can be learnt; progress in the Chernobyl decommissioning and waste management strategy.
