Naturvernforbundet's decommission project aims to contribute to an open and democratic process about the future of the old nuclear reactors at Kola and Leningrad nuclear power plants in North West Russia.

The long-term goal of the project is that an official plan for decommissioning of the oldest Russian nuclear power plant reactors is developed and implemented. The plan should provide a safe, secure and environmentally reliable way to decommissioning, and set an acceptable time table for closure. In shorter term, the project shall contribute to a public debate on the future of the reactors, to participation of civil society in the process, and capacity building in environmental NGOs.

The project is financed by the Norwegian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, over the Nuclear Action Plan. The project has been running from 2004.

    Brukt atombrensel skaper strid i Russland

    Brukt atombrensel skal fraktes fra Finskebukta til Sibir. Der skal det lagres i et midlertidig lager ved elva Jenisei. En ulykke kan føre radioaktiv forurensing fra Sibir via Jenisei til Polhavet og med havstrømmen vestover til Kola og Barentshavet. Radioaktiv fisk og sjømat kan bli resultatet. Russiske miljøvernere fordømmer flyttingen.

    Is the number of nuclear power plants growing?

    The nuclear renaissance has been a popular theme for articles during the last few years. The articles have focused on the supposed new growth of new nuclear plants. The term “renaissance” by the way means a “new birth” or a “re-birth”. -This is not true, says nuclear specialist Peter A. Bradford. -There is no renaissance for nuclear power.
