Lifetime-extension: underestimated nuclear threat? (Tuesday, July 18)

There are few nuclear new builds in Europe and many companies are reluctant to start them as they turn out to be way more expensive than anticipated and usually have desastrous effects on the economy and rating of the companies. This makes looking for lifetime extensions of existing nuclear power plants a seemingly valid alternative for nuclear companies. Which in turn makes the lifetime-extensions an important development to watch, when old plants are allowed to run 20 or more years longer, often without proper environmental impact assessments, public consultation, let alone transboundary consultations. The workshops gives an overview and explains the problem around the Ukrainian and Belgium lifetime-extensions in greater detail and looks into protest activities around them.
