Abstract
Cooperation at European level is needed to formulate policy on the management of spent nuclear fuel and its waste, with countries urged to work together on fuel cycle research, regional deep geological repositories, and education and training, a European Commission report says. The report calls specifically for the continued development of fast-neutron reactors (FNRs), a major task for governments across Europe that has so far proved “more difficult than expected”.
