  2. Why Nuclear Energy Series Earlier all NE reports were TECDOC’s or TRS • Consecutive numbering • Mixing between subjects • No structure • No revision process Nuclear Energy Series • Organise the reports by subject • Organise the reports by level of advice • Improve the quality by a structured production and consultation process and regular revisions • Ensure consistency with other documents in information and messages through this process

  3. NE Series Documents • Provide advice for those either planning or implementing nuclear activities (mainly nuclear power) • Based on Best Practices in the MS • Building on expertise in MS as represented in SAGNE TWGs and their nominees

  4. Areas and topics in NE Series General Nuclear Power Nuclear Fuel Cycle RW Mgmt Decomm Areas Management Systems Technology Development Resources RW management Human Resources Design of NPPs Fuel Eng. and Performance Decomm. of nuclear facilities Topics Nucl. Infrastr/Planning Operation of NPPs Spt Fuel Mgmt Reprocessing Site Remediation Economics Non Electrical Applications Fuel Cycles Energy System Analysis Research Reactors NFC Research Reactors Knowledge Management

  5. Structure of the Nuclear Energy Series Documents Basic Principles & Objectives Guides Reports

  6. Structure of the Nuclear Energy Series Documents Basic Principles Manifest and describe the rationale, and vision for the peaceful use of nuclear energy

  7. Background – Nuclear Energy Basic Principles • Beneficial use • Benefits • Transparency • Responsible use • Protection • Security • Non-proliferation • Long term commitment • Sustainable use • Resource efficiency • Continual improvement

  8. Structure of the Nuclear Energy Series Documents Objectives Describe what needs to be considered and to be achieved in various Areas at different stages of implementation • The Objectives include 4 Areas • General • Nuclear Power • Nuclear Fuel cycle • Radioactive waste and decommissioning

  9. Background – Objectives • General • Nuclear Power • Technology development • Design and construction of NPPs • Operation of NPPs • Non-electrical applications • Research reactors • Nuclear Fuel Cycle • RWM and Decommissioning

  10. Structure of the Nuclear Energy Series Documents Nuclear Energy Guides Describe how to achieve the objectives relating to various topics. The Guides include 18 Topical domains

  11. Background – Guides • Milestones in the Development of a National Infrastructure for Nuclear Power • Managing of Human Resources in the Field of Nuclear Energy • Policies and Strategies for Radioactive Waste Management

  12. Structure of the Nuclear Energy Series Documents Reports Provide technical background in the various Areas and Topics

  13. General Scheme for WTS documents

  14. General Scheme for NFC documents

  15. Background – Guides

  16. Background – Guides

  17. Background – Guides

  18. Background – Guides

  19. Structured production and consultation process • Document Coordination Team – to ensure internal scrutiny and harmonization • Representatives from NE Divisions, NS and NA dpt’s • Provides advice at different stages – DPP- Final report • External experts – to ensure best knowledge • Produce reports • SAGNE and Technical Working Groups - to ensure technical quality and MS involvement • Reviews final draft of top level documents • 300 experts from 50 Member States and 5 international organizations • Publication Committee • Ensures IAEA harmonization and quality requirements

  20. Ensuring harmony with safety standards Basic principles agreed between DDG NE and NS • Safety Standards provide boundary conditions for NE documents regarding safety • No development of Safety Standards in NE documents • NE responsible that if Safety Standards are reproduced they should be updated as appropriate • NS represented in NE DCT - should participate in the review at various stages to ensure harmony with safety standards

  21. Summary • NES developed to structure NE publications, improve their quality and ensure harmonization • A comprehensive process developed to ensure highest level technical input from the Member States and internal IAEA coordination • The NES is complementary to Safety and Security Series and has a different purpose • The purpose of the NES documents is to provide advice for those planning or implementing nuclear power, i.e. normally industry and research organizations, but also policy makers and financers
