Provides guidance on assessing of sustainability of a nuclear energy system (NES) in the area of environmental impact of stressors. The INPRO methodology is a comprehensive tool for the assessment of sustainability of an NES. Basic principles, user requirements and criteria are defined in different areas of the INPRO methodology.

Addresses costs arising during individual phases of an environmental remediation project, how they can be calculated, and how they can be structured and documented. Thuis guide provides the methodology of cost estimation and includes examples of cost estimate models, development plans, cost elements and work breakdown structures.

Discusses the barriers that prevent the implementation of decommissioning and environmental remediation (D&ER) projects and provides potential solutions to overcome the identified barriers and thereby facilitate a better implementation of D&ER programmes.

Describes differences in post-accident situations compared with normal decommissioning (i.e. decommissioning after a planned final shutdown) and identifies significant decision factors as applicable. This publication focuses on the on-site decommissioning aspects of a technical nature, which need to be addressed after a nuclear accident.

Describes an evaluation approach to determine a Member State's status in implementing the infrastructure areas necessary for a nuclear power plant project. It has been written to be used by any interested Member State for self-evaluation as well as for external reviews with the participation of the IAEA and of independent external experts.

Presents a modular approach to the design of waste processing and storage facilities to address the needs of such Member States with a cost effective and flexible solution that allows easy adjustment to changing needs in terms of capacity and variety of waste streams.
