The IAEA's programme on Safety Assessment Driving Radioactive Waste Management Solutions (SADRWMS) focused on approaches and mechanisms for application of safety assessment methodologies for the predisposal management of radioactive waste. This publication summarizes the content and outcomes of the SADRWMS programme.

Addresses issues relating to nuclear power deployment faced by countries with electrical grids of limited capacity and stability. In particular, technology issues and related institutional measures as well as some technical and economic options for managing spent fuel and radioactive waste applicable in these circumstances are addressed.

Ion beam analysis techniques are non-destructive analytical techniques used to identify the composition and provide elemental depth profiles in surface layers of materials. Their reliability and accuracy depends on our knowledge of the nuclear reaction cross sections. This publication describes the coordinated effort to measure, compile and evaluate cross section data relevant to these techniques.

From 2009 to 2014, fourteen IAEA Integrated Nuclear Infrastructure Review missions and follow-up activities were conducted in nine countries planning to implement a nuclear power programme and one country expanding an existing programme. This publication summarizes the results of the missions and highlights the most significant areas where recommendations were made.
