The role of TSOs in the context of increasing demand

for safety expertise

N O V E M B e r 3 & 4 , 2 0 0 8 P A R I S

Organised jointly by IRSN & GRS

The EUROSAFE Forum is part of the EUROSAFE approach, developed by the European Technical Safety Organisations Network (ETSON) and its partners. It includes two further elements: the EUROSAFE Tribune and the EUROSAFE website. The general aim of EUROSAFE is to contribute to fostering the convergence of technical nuclear safety practices in a broad European context. This is done by providing technical safety and research organisations, safety authorities, power utilities, the rest of the industry, international organisations and non-governmental organisations with a platform for the presentation of recent analyses and R&D in the field of nuclear safety, to share experiences, exchange technical and scientific opinions, and conduct debates on key issues in the fields of nuclear safety and radiation protection.

The EUROSAFE Forum 2008 focuses on “The role of TSOs in the context of increasing demand for safety expertise” from the point of view of the authorities, TSOs and industry and presents the latest work in nuclear installation safety and research, radiation safety as well as nuclear material and nuclear facilities security carried out by the founding members of ETSON (GRS, IRSN, Bel V) and their partners worldwide.

A high level of nuclear safety is a priority for Europe. Technical safety organisations play an important role in contributing to that objective through appropriate approaches to major safety issues as part of their assessments and research activities.

The challenges to nuclear safety are international. Changes in underlying technologies, the impact of electricity market deregulation, demands for improved safety and safety management, the ageing of nuclear facilities, waste management, maintaining and improving scientific and technical knowledge, and the need for greater transparency - these are all issues where the value of an international approach is gaining increasing recognition.

The enlarged European Union of 27 countries, of which 13 use nuclear energy, will require closer collaboration between technical safety organisations as well as technical support organisations of all kinds and even more convergence in European nuclear safety practices. EUROSAFE aims to respond to these needs.
