Belarus Unit 1, Nov 2013
As many as 5 countries could have their first reactors under construction in the next 5 years.

Why Nuclear Power?
![Page 8: The IAEA Approach to Establishing New Nuclear … 4...•The IAEA has developed the Milestones Approach to help guide Member States through this process. •An effective NEPIO is key](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022042420/5f36c616be00df163d74bd18/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Why Nuclear Power?
• Improved energy independence;
• Development of indigenous energy resources;
• Access to affordable energy services;
• Reliability of electricity supply; and,
• Environmental protection, including climate change.
Energy planning is a key component of developing a national position.
![Page 9: The IAEA Approach to Establishing New Nuclear … 4...•The IAEA has developed the Milestones Approach to help guide Member States through this process. •An effective NEPIO is key](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022042420/5f36c616be00df163d74bd18/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Energy Planning and National Position
Feasibility study: Is our project feasible and viable?
Funding, Business-models
Infrastructure gaps Grid and Siting issues Public awareness
Pre-feasibility study: Is nuclear option suitable for the country ?
Infrastructure gaps Economics/ Financing Grid and siting issues, Public
awareness
Energy planning: What energy mix?
Current demand/ current resources Economic, environmental and policy goals in
20/30 years, forecast scenarios

IAEA Milestones Approach: Milestones
A Pre-Feasibility Study will help a country establish a strong national position and answer the key question: why nuclear? This process begins early in Phase 1 after nuclear power is included as an option in the energy strategy.

IAEA Milestones Approach: Infrastructure Issues
The Milestones Approach is holistic and considers 19 specific infrastructure issues.
![Page 12: The IAEA Approach to Establishing New Nuclear … 4...•The IAEA has developed the Milestones Approach to help guide Member States through this process. •An effective NEPIO is key](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022042420/5f36c616be00df163d74bd18/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Nuclear Energy Programme Implementing Organization (NEPIO)
The NEPIO has different functions in each Phase of the Milestones Approach
![Page 13: The IAEA Approach to Establishing New Nuclear … 4...•The IAEA has developed the Milestones Approach to help guide Member States through this process. •An effective NEPIO is key](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022042420/5f36c616be00df163d74bd18/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
NEPIO: Phase 1
A country needs to be in a position to make a “knowledgeable decision” about embarking on a nuclear power programme.
![Page 14: The IAEA Approach to Establishing New Nuclear … 4...•The IAEA has developed the Milestones Approach to help guide Member States through this process. •An effective NEPIO is key](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022042420/5f36c616be00df163d74bd18/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
NEPIO Phase 2
![Page 15: The IAEA Approach to Establishing New Nuclear … 4...•The IAEA has developed the Milestones Approach to help guide Member States through this process. •An effective NEPIO is key](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022042420/5f36c616be00df163d74bd18/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
NEPIO Phase 3
• Government should continue to develop necessary human resources and capacity, communicate with the public and develop the nuclear waste strategy.
• Operating organization should select strategic approach and develop financing strategy in consultation with government.
• Regulatory body should be fully operational and have necessary expertise.
