Kazakhstan: 20 Years of Sustainable Growth New Horizons for Investment & Cooperation IAEA Services For Sustainable Energy Development Thomas Koshy, Head Nuclear Power Technology Development Division of Nuclear Power
Outline of presentation • IAEA Mission • Concept of sustainable development Holistic nature • Factors of Consideration • IAEA Tools • Nuclear Energy System Assessment • IMPRO methodology • Conclusion
IAEA at a Glance • Founded in 1957 • 151 Member States • 2300 professional and support staff • Headquarters in Vienna • 2 scientific laboratories and research centres
The IAEA and its Mission Maximizing the contribution of nuclear technology to the worldwhile verifying its peaceful use
IAEA - Three Pillars Safeguards & Verification The IAEA performs an indispensable role in furthering non-proliferation through verifying States' commitments regarding the peaceful use of nuclear energy Safety & Security The IAEA works to protect people and the environment from harmful radiation exposure. Science & Technology The IAEA works to foster nuclear applications in Member States.
IAEA / characteristics • Global membership • developed and developing countries alike • Unique mandates in particular … • in nuclear safety (IAEA Safety Standards) • in the area of non-proliferation and safeguards • Technical capacity • in Secretariat itself and in its technical programmes, e.g. in nuclear energy, science and technology • Capacity building mechanisms • through Technical Cooperation programme
Department of Nuclear Energy and Division of Nuclear Power
Dept. of Nuclear Energy • The mission of the Department of Nuclear Energy is characterized by three words: • support, • catalyse and • build. • The Department fosters the efficient and safe use of nuclear power by supporting existing and new nuclear programmes around the world, catalyzing innovation and building indigenous capability in energy planning, analysis, and nuclear information and knowledge.
MISSION Facilitate information exchange and collaborative research and development in the area of nuclear system technologies needed to meet, in a sustainable manner, the increasing energy demands of the 21st century. http://www.iaea.org/NuclearPower
IAEA Approach • To help ensure that nuclear energy is available to contribute, in a sustainable manner, to the energy needs of the 21st century. • To bring together technologyholdersand users to consider jointly national and international actions required for achieving desired innovations in nuclear reactors and fuel cycles.
Logical planning sequence • National sustainable development plan • Energy planning • PESS tools • Long-range nuclear energy stragtegies • INPRO • Building 1st NPP • Infrastructure • Technology selection • Brochure on planning tools INPRO

HolisticNature of NESA Nuclear Energy System Assessment (NESA) Covers innovative and evolutionary designs of all reactor types and Nuclear Fuel Cycle facilities. • Covers all components (or facilities) of a Nuclear Energy System (no matter where located). • All phases of a Nuclear Energy System, i.e. cradle to grave.
Holistic Nature of NESA Economics Safety (Reactor) Proliferation Resistance Safety (Fuel Cycle) Sustainable NES Infra structure Physical protection Environment Waste Management
Potential Users of a NESA Benefit for 3 Potential users of INPRO Methodology in a NESA: • Technology developers: Assistance for planning/ executing R&D. • Technology users: Assistance for decision making when considering additional deployment of NES components. • Prospective first time users:Assistance with becoming knowledgeable .
Basic Principles User Requirements Criteria Architecture of INPRO requirements Basic Principles :goals for development of sustainable NES. User Requirements:what should be done by designer, operator, industry and/or State to meet goal defined in Basic Principle. Criteria:Assessor’s tools to check whether a User Requirement has been met .
Characteristics of INPRO Requirements • INPRO User Requirements are directed at: • Designeror developer of nuclear facilities. • State (government institutions). • Operator of nuclear facilities. • National industry (involved in nuclear power program). • Input data needed for evaluation of INPRO User Requirements to be provided by responsible organization.
