Advance payments on the cost of the federal repository for radioactive waste

Abstract

Under W. Germany's Atomic Energy Act, the federal government is responsible for the final storage of radioactive wastes. Other steps of the back end fuel cycle must be implemented by private industry. Under the act, the government is entitled to charge for the costs of the erection and operation of any final repositories. To cover the initial investment involved in preparation and planning, the government is requesting advance payments from those wishing to use the repositories in the future. However, there is no legal basis for advance payments to be made, at least until an operating permit has been granted for the planned back-end fuel cycle center. Utilities operating nuclear power plants cannot be forced to make advance storage payments, and even an amendment to the Atomic Energy Act will not change the situation. (in German) (15 references)
