Rapportnummer: 2010:19 Författare: : Lars van Dassen, Sarmite Andersson, Gabriela Bejarano, Zlatan Delalic, Christer Ekblad, Olga German, Sten Grapengiesser, Olof Karlberg, Kjell Olsson, Viviana Sandberg, Tor Stenberg, Roland Turner and Irene Zinger Datum: June 2010 Foreword The Swedish Radiation Safety Authority (SSM) is trusted with the task of implementing Sweden’s bilateral cooperation with Russia, Ukraine, Ge- orgia, Belarus and Armenia in the fields of reactor safety, nuclear waste management, nuclear non-proliferation as well as radiation protection and emergency preparedness. In these fields, SSM also participates in a number of projects financed by the European Union. This report gives an overview of the cooperation projects in 2009 as well as the framework in which they are performed. Summaries of each project are given in an Appendix. The project managers in the Section for Cooperation and Development in the Department of International Affairs are responsible for the cooperation projects and the implementation of the bilateral programmes. But the posi- tive outcome of the projects is also dependent on a large number of experts at SSM who work with the regulatory functions in the nuclear and radiation protection fields in a Swedish context as well as on external consultants.

    Decommissioning Russia’s old nuclear power reactors: Status update on key processes 2017 The report is made in the frame of the project “From closed rooms to openness”, financially supported by the Norwegian Radiation Protection Authority over the Nuclear Action Plan. Project partners from Russia, Ukraine and Norway cooperate to promote safe, social and environmental acceptable decommissioning of old nuclear power plant reactors, including handling of radioactive waste and spent nuclear fuel. We believe in openness and participation of all stakeholders in the decision-making processes, including authorities at all levels, business and civil society.

  • Russia Nuclear Power Development Chronology
    Russia Nuclear Power Development Chronology 2004 | 2003 | 2002 | 2001 | 2000 | 1999 | 1998-1997 | 1996 | 1995 | 1994 | 1993 Last update: January 2008 This annotated chronology is based on the data sources that follow each entry. Public sources often provide conflicting information on classified military programs. In some cases we are unable to resolve these discrepancies, in others we have deliberately refrained from doing so to highlight the potential influence of false or misleading information as it appeared over time. In many cases, we are unable to independently verify claims. Hence in reviewing this chronology, readers should take into account the credibility of the sources employed here. Inclusion in this chronology does not necessarily indicate that a particular development is of direct or indirect proliferation significance. Some entries provide international or domestic context for technological development and national policymaking. Moreover, some entries may refer to developments with positive consequences for nonproliferation. 2004 16 January 2004 GOSATOMNADZOR EXTENDS NPP SERVICE LIVES On 16 January 2004, Interfax reported that Rosenergoatom had received a license from Gosatomnadzor to extend the service life of Bilibino NPP Unit 1 for a year. In 2001-2002, licenses were issued to extend the service lives of Novovoronezh NPP Units 3 and 4, and in 2003 a similar license was issued to Unit 1 at Kola NPP. As of January 2004, work was under way to upgrade the equipment at Leningrad NPP Unit 1 and Kola NPP Unit 2. Requests to extend the service lives of both units will be submitted to Gosatomnadzor in 2004. -"Gosatomnadzor prodlil ekspluatatsiyu 1-go bloka Bilibinskoy AES na god," Interfax, 16 January 2004.
