Topical study on fuel related events
Volume I: Main report
Topical studies are a major product of the European Clearinghouse providing in-depth as-sessment of safety significant events and generic safety issues. This is the second topical study on nuclear fuel from the European Clearinghouse, covering recent events from nuclear power plants in Europe and worldwide. It includes events which occurred during reactor oper-ation, as well as during fuel handling or storage. Taken individually, these events have minor safety significance, but their joint review provides experiences from different countries and reactor technologies that can help nuclear safety authorities to regulate their nuclear installa-tions.
The review of selected events resulted in the formulation of 29 lessons learned. These are discussed and grouped according to various criteria. Thus, this report provides a structured set of generic lessons learned, which may be utilised by regulatory bodies.
