16 5. Recent topics in GIF (1) Safety Design Criteria : SDC International collaboration should be fostered on the utilization of nuclear energy for future. For that, it becomes more significant to build common criteria which should be flexible within an acceptable range. Based on that background, PG chair proposed to create the safety design criteria (SDC) on Gen-IV SFR as international common criteria at PG meeting in October, GIF created a taskforce under the PG and has started examination on the SDC. The SDC is the SFR design criteria to achieve safety goals of Gen-IV systems. Slide 16
17 Safety Design Criteria : SDC SFR SDC by GIF Slide 17
18 Safety Design Criteria : SDC After the SDC have been discussed in GIF for 2 years, its draft report is almost completed. The SDC was also discussed at the GIF-IAEA joint workshop last week in Vienna and final report of SDC/taskforce will be reported in Beijing GIF/PG meeting, May Safety Design Criteria for other Gen-IV systems need to be considered in GIF as well. MDEP SDC IAEA Slide 18
19 5. Recent topics in GIF (2) Decadal Strategic Planning for GIF Strategic planning is underway to further progress of GIF. Strategic planning for next decade Ten years have passed from establishment of GIF Development of Gen-IV systems is progressing to next phase Technology has advanced Taskforce for next decadal planning (Sub-teams) Technology roadmap update Strengthening R&D collaboration Strengthening ties with other international organizations Technology Roadmap(2002) Slide 19
20 Decadal Strategic Planning for GIF Current status of Decadal Strategic Planning was explained and discussed in the 2 nd GIF symposium and Policy Group meeting in San Diego. The final report will be prepared by April, 2013 and be discussed in next Policy Group meeting in Beijing, China in May We expect GIF will progress further to the next stage under new decadal strategic planning. Slide 20
21 6. Expectation for FR13 A series of international conferences on fast reactors was revived with FR09 (Kyoto, Japan, Dec., 2009) for the first time in 18 years. Now is a critical time for SFR development because it is progressing towards demonstration phase. Expect the success of FR13 and meaningful information exchange in this conference. Slide 21
22 Summary GIF has played a major role as an international framework for development of Gen-IV nuclear systems since Countries expanding energy demand plan to enlarge the capacity of nuclear power. Gen-IV systems also need to be deployed. After Fukushima Daiichi NPP accident, more enhancement of safety is crucial, and Gen-IV systems importance has not changed. Expect the success of FR13.
