Description

The key considerations in the Spanish approach for the interim storage of around 5200 t U of spent fuel are presented. The strategy is based on expanding the present capacity of nuclear power plant pools by means of re-racking and providing additional storage with dual purpose metal casks. The bases for selecting this type of storage, together with its impact on the other stages of spent fuel management, are briefly outlined. (author). 2 refs, 3 figs
