Proceedings of the international conference on nuclear power competitiveness in the next two decades

Abstract

The purpose of this conference is to analyse the different elements that can have an influence on the cost of generating nucleo- electricity. Besides the usual predominant factors as fuel supply, personnel and maintenance that enter in the costs of any electricity generating method, nuclear power generation suffers the extra burden of severe regulatory demands, high decommissioning and insurance costs and an adverse public opinion that can effect competitiveness. Countries that can keep the nuclear option open during this difficult period will be the leaders in the future, those that cannot survive will become hopelessly energy dependent. Almost one hundred contributions gathered in these volume, as a result of presentations at the conference from participants from 22 countries, will contribute to increase competitiveness of nuclear power generation and, if possible, develop new ideas to help solve the present crisis in the nuclear sector. refs., ills.
