Nuclear energy in Spain

Current situation of nuclear Energy in Spain

8 reactors at 6 locations

2 reactors in dismantling process

7,865 Mwe installed power: 7.27% of total

56,815 GWh produced in 2013: 20,8% of total

Avoids anual emission of between 30 and 40 million tons of CO2

Generates over 32% of emission-free electricity

Avoids importing 100 million petroleum barrels per year

The Spanish Nuclear Industry

A competitive, consolidated and experienced industry:

Supports the operation of the Spanish nuclear power plants

Caters to an ever-growing international nuclear market

Present throughout the entire nuclear cycle

Participates in R+D programs: advanced reactors, nuclear fusion (ITER) and high energy physics

Actively co-operates with international organizations: : WANO, NEI, EPRI, NEA/OECD and IAEA

Radioactive wastemanagement

In Spain, radioactive waste is managed by the public company ENRESA

Low and medium activity waste: thevery low, low and medium level waste storage center in El Cabril (Córdoba, Spain)

Used fuel: it is stored in the plant pools or in dry storage when the pools are full or being dismantled

ATC (Centralised Storage Facility): Villar de Cañas (Cuenca, Spain) Important economic motor for the area, and a source of employment.

Dismantling of nuclear and radioactive sites

The Spanish nuclear industry:

The internationalization of nuclear activities is a tendency that has consolidated over the last few years

Nuclear companies have strived to retain and increase their capacities in order to reach an ever growing international market

The industrial nuclear sector is consolidated and prestigious, and generates wealth and employment

It is also:

A niche of nuclear activity

A focus of qualified employment

An international source of prestige

A generator of the Spanish national trademark
