14 Chile: Nuclear Power Highlights Highlights during Bachelet s Government ( ) (Former president Bachelet) She set up the Nuclear power team work, which concluded there s no reason to discard nuclear energy as a source of electricity. After that, the following studies were hired: Role of the state and the private sector Regulatory framework Fuel cycle Impacts and risks of nuclear power Descriptions of Chile's natural risks which should be considered before implementing a NPP Analysis and proposal of nuclear regulation Updated required to the current legal framework before introducing NPP Public opinion 2008, Chilean Engineer School develop a Report with suggestions and a schedule for the implementation of a Nuclear Power Programme (February, weeks before chilean earthquake), the report Nuclear Electricity in Chile: Possibilities, Gaps and Challenges was submitted at the end of Bachelet s government, by CChEN and the National Energy Commission. This was a more deeply evaluation about the possibility of implementing a NPP. 2010, (February 27th), earthquake 8.8 Richter scale. After that, one year later (March 2011) a nuclear accident in Fukushima, the fears of population increased. Gobierno de Chile Ministry of Energy/ CCHEN 14

15 Chile Nuclear Power in Chile Current highlights of Sebastian Piñera s Government (2010 at date) 2011 President Piñera received the report : Electricity Development Advisory Commission, which recommended for a possible NPP : To increase the CCHEN resources The formation of a new, autonomous regulatory body- different from CCHEN Geologycal studies To inform the population about nuclear energy To train and develop human resources 2012 CChEN forms GENE (Nuclear Electric Study Group) to develop all the required capacities for advising the government regarding a NPP (CCHEN human resources in collaboration with the Energy National Commission) 2013 Currently the following studies are being considered to be tendered : Nuclear Technology Reactors Study. Regional Analysis for selecting potential areas for sitting. Gobierno de Chile Ministry of Energy / CCHEN 15

23 GENE Chile CCHEN Nuclear Electric Study Group Chilean Nuclear Energy Commission Conclusion To the present, the GENE continues evaluating the feasibility of a NPP. Even though, political decisions have been posposed, is expected that soon a resolution will be taken The current challenges recognized by the GENE are: Built the institutional capability in CChen in order to give advice to the Government in all aspects of Nuclear Power. To fully understand Fukushima s accident To inform the public. To identify the gaps in the national framework regarding to every topic being evaluated, considering different PNP s scenarios in the country. Gobierno de Chile Ministry of Energy / CCHEN 23
