FOREWORD Foreword In October 2012, the NEA Committee for Technical and Economic Studies on Nuclear Energy Development and the Fuel Cycle (NDC) endorsed a proposal to include the “Impacts of Fukushima on Nuclear Development Policies” project in the 2013-2014 Programme of Work for the NEA Division of Nuclear Development (DEV) in an effort to review changes in nuclear energy policies following the accident at the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant (NPP). Such an assessment would provide insight not only into the current trajectory of nuclear power development but also into the likelihood of meeting rising energy demand to 2025 and beyond, while achieving greenhouse gas reduction goals and the important policy goal of decarbonising electricity generation. Keeping abreast of policy changes is important for NEA member countries, in particular those with nuclear power programmes, reactor vendors and associated businesses. Since most must also make decisions on commitments to meet greenhouse gas emission reduction targets, on the need to replace ageing electricity generating facilities and on energy security of supply concerns, it is important for them to be up-to- date on developments in nuclear power in other countries so as to inform their own decision making. It became clear as time progressed after the March 2011 accident that a few key countries would not be able to finalise policy responses to the accident for some time, and thus the NDC agreed to extend the study to cover approximately a six-year period following the accident. Today, policies in the majority of countries with nuclear power remain unchanged. In some countries, the changes in nuclear energy policies are evident, whereas in others they are much less so. Clearly, policy changes driven by the Fukushima Daiichi accident have slowed the development of nuclear energy, but countries’ policy re-evaluations of nuclear power linked to the accident generally appear to have subsided. Other factors, in particular abundant, low-cost natural gas (mainly in the United States), ambitious targets for developing variable renewable energy generation, the risk averse investment climate persisting since the global financial crisis in 2008, the low demand for and price of electricity in many developed countries and the challenges of investing in thermal electricity generating facilities of any kind in liberalised markets (particularly in Europe and in some areas of the United States), appear to be the main factors affecting investment decisions for nuclear power projects in many parts of the world today. This uncertainty and inherent risk context offers a more likely explanation to why projections for nuclear development have tended to decrease, for instance, the 2035 projections of the NEA/International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Uranium: Resources, Production and Demand (the “Red Book”) or the two-degree scenario (2DS) projections of the International Energy Agency (IEA) Energy Technology Perspectives.

  • Taiwanese Sovereignty & the United States' Strategic
    TAIWANESE SOVEREIGNTY & THE UNITED STATES’ STRATEGIC DETERRENCE OF CHINA Brent A. Alves Captain, United States Air Force Submitted in fulfillment of the requirements for AIR UNIVERSITY ADVANCED RESEARCH PROGRAM NEXT GENERATION INTELLIGENCE, SURVEILLANCE, AND RECONNAISSANCE In part of SQUADRON OFFICER SCHOOL VIRTUAL – IN RESIDENCE CLASS 21D AIR UNIVERSITY MAXWELL AIR FORCE BASE May 2021 Dislcaimer: “Opinions, conclusions, and recommendations expressed or implied are solely those of the author and do not necessarily represent the views of the Air University, the United States Air Force, the Department of Defense, or any other US Government agency.” Abstract Since the Chinese Civil War ended in 1949, the United States has maintained a rather complex relationship between the governments of the Republic of China (Taiwan) and the People’s Republic of China (PRC) (China). Recently, Beijing has taken an increasingly aggressive stance towards Taipei with their “One China Principle”. Under the “One China Principle”, the end goal is the reunification of China under the government of the PRC. With the aim of preserving regional stability in the Indo-Pacific, the United States and its allies require innovative, as well as traditional solutions. This paper explores the solutions that the United States could employ to maintain regional stability, as well as geopolitical ties in the region. Introduction Historically, the United States has sustained a healthy level of strategic dominance regarding deterrence and China in the INDOPACOM (Indo-Pacific Command) region. However, China has experienced tremendous economic growth over the past two decades, which has led to their defense budget growing by approximately 640 percent between 1996 and 2014.1 As China continues to grow economically and militarily, dominance is no longer a necessary condition for deterrence.2 Rather than focusing on dominance, it is necessary for the United States to employ other forms of deterrence with its new-peer competitors.

    THE BELLONA FOUNDATION Nornickel and the Kola Peninsula Photo: Thomas Nilsen ENVIRONMENTAL RESPONSIBILITY IN THE YEAR OF ECOLOGY JANUARY 2018 The Bellona Foundation is an international environmental NGO based in Norway. Founded in 1986 as a direct action protest group, Bellona has become a recognized technology and solution- oriented organizations with offices in Oslo, Brussels, Kiev, St. Petersburg and Murmansk. Altogether, some 60 engineers, ecologists, nuclear physicists, economists, lawyers, political scientists and journalists work at Bellona. Environmental change is an enormous challenge. It can only be solved if politicians and legislators develop clear policy frameworks and regulations for industry and consumers. Industry plays a role by developing and commercializing environmentally sound technology. Bellona strives to be a bridge builder between industry and policy makers, working closely with the former to help them respond to environmental challenges in their field, and proposing policy measures that promote new technologies with the least impact on the environment.

  • Norwegian Environmentalism Between State and Local Community: Why Greenpeace Failed in Norway
    NORWEGIAN ENVIRONMENTALISM BETWEEN STATE AND LOCAL COMMUNITY: WHY GREENPEACE FAILED IN NORWAY Kristin Strømsnes, Per Selle and Gunnar Grendstad Stein Rokkan Centre for Social Studies / Department of Comparative Politics, University of Bergen Paper presented at the 7th International ISTR Conference, Bangkok, Thailand, July 9-12 2006. NORWEGIAN ENVIRONMENTALISM BETWEEN STATE AND LOCAL COMMUNITY: WHY GREENPEACE FAILED IN NORWAY Kristin Strømsnes, Per Selle and Gunnar Grendstad Why is it that Greenpeace never succeeded in Norway? To answer this question, we have to examine the way organized environmentalism is configured in the Norwegian case. This is a case that does not easily fit into the general assumptions behind the definitions of environmentalism that has been generated by the bulk of ‘continental’ or ‘Anglo-Saxon’ literature (see Grendstad et al. 2006). We argue that the Norwegian case deviates from the mainstream definition of environmentalism due to two anomalies. The roots of the two anomalies are found at different but interrelated levels of analysis. The first anomaly is that the Norwegian political and social system differs when compared to systems in most other countries in that adversary actors or interests are not excluded from national politics, but, in general, are welcomed by the government. We label this anomaly the inclusive polity and the state-friendly society. In short, we refer to it as the state-friendly society. This anomaly, which has a long historical tradition, is primarily found at a structural level. But it also ties in with mainstream attitudes and beliefs that define part of the Norwegian political culture. The other anomaly is more ideological, although this, too, has strong structural ties because national environmental concern is influenced by a notion of social hardship and self-sufficiency as part of local living.

  • The Regulatory Control of Radioactive Waste
    RADIOACTIVE WASTE MANAGEMENTAND DECOMMISSIONING IN ITALY 1. NATIONAL FRAMEWORK FOR MANAGEMENT AND REGULATION OF RADIOACTIVE WASTE AND DECOMMISSIONING 1.1 National Framework 1.1.1 Overview of national policy Commercial utilisation of nuclear power in Italy started in 1963 and by 1981 four nuclear power plants, namely the NPPs of Garigliano (BWR), Latina (MAGNOX), Trino (PWR) and Caorso (BWR), and a LEU fuel fabrication installation (Bosco Marengo S.p.A.) had been commissioned. During that period the Nuclear Energy Research Agency (CNEN) – now the Agency for New Technologies, Energy and the Sustainable Economic Development (ENEA) - developed an extensive R&D programme on the nuclear fuel cycle with the operation of experimental fuel cycle installations (e.g. ITREC and EUREX). The three NPPs of Latina, Trino and Caorso continued to be operated until 1987, when they were definitely shut down based on a governmental decision which interpreted the results of a national referendum, called upon after the Chernobyl accident, as the will to abandon the nuclear option. The NPP of Garigliano had been already shut down in 1978, for technical reasons. At the same time the nuclear programme was cancelled, the Interministerial Committee for the Economical Planning (CIPE) required the National Electricity Company (ENEL S.p.A.) to start the decommissioning of the NPPs and a “Safe storage” (IAEA level 1/2) option was initially adopted. In 1999, all ENEL S.p.A. liabilities and assets connected to nuclear power were assigned to a newly established company, named Sogin (Società Gestione Impianti Nucleari) S.p.A., whose shareholder is the Ministry of Economy and Finance, while the Ministry of Economic Development gives the strategic and operational objectives.

  • 1 Preliminary Draft Do Not Cite Transparency and The
    PRELIMINARY DRAFT DO NOT CITE TRANSPARENCY AND THE NATURAL ENVIRONMENT Misha Singh and Shekhar Singh1 Introduction It has been a little over fifty years since environmental degradation was acknowledged to have joined the ranks of hunger, poverty, disease, war and injustice as one of the main threats confronting humanity. Since then, the news has been mostly bad and not only has the threat become more severe but new dimensions, like global warming, depletion of the ozone layer, space litter, electronic waste, and genetically modified organisms, have become evident. Environmental degradation has also come to be recognised, along with injustice, as an underlying cause behind much of the hunger, poverty and disease, and some of the wars, that afflict the world. This paper attempts to describe the growth of environmental consciousness and its relation with transparency. It describes the current state of legal instrumentalities and traces the evolution of access to environmental information movements and laws and their relationship with more general transparency laws and struggles. It finally lists out some of the environmental areas and issues where access to information is especially critical. The Growth of Global Environmental Consciousness The last hundred and fifty years saw unprecedented growth in human population, rapid changes in human lifestyles and consumption patterns, and growth of technologies that facilitated unlimited exploitation of natural resources. As more and more people needed and wanted more and more goods and resources, and acquired the capacity to extract these from nature, the natural environment began to degrade. Unfortunately, the process of extraction of natural resources and their conversion into goods for human use also produced by-products that polluted the environment.
