ANTONIO CORNADÓ QUIBUSPRESIDENTE DE FORO DE LA INDUSTRIA NUCLEAR ESPAÑOLA

Throughout the development of the nuclear programme in our country, the participation of the Spanish nuclear industry has grown to the point where it is capable of supplying about 85% of everything needed for the construction and start up of a nuclear power plant. However, the change in the orientation of the Spanish energy programme with the nuclear moratorium in 1984, meant that the companies in the sector had to expand internationally to maintain their capacities and their activity.

Thirty years later we can see that this decision has made it possible for the Spanish nuclear industry to become a solvent, qualified and prestigious industry which has contributed to the improvement and updating of the Spanish nuclear power plants in operation, a niche of industrial activity, generating qualified employment and is a source of international prestige and the creator of a country brand.

Nowadays we are capable of better evaluating how the growth of the sector as a whole and the diversity of its technological references, decided at the beginning of the Spanish nuclear programme, have become a factor of wealth and versatility, as we can now work successfully with different technologies, with a presence in all of the nuclear cycle: construction, fuel, maintenance, operation, training, supply of equipment and components, new developments, R+D, waste management and decommissioning.

The existence of an association, the Spanish Nuclear Industry Forum, which comprises all of the agents in the nuclear industry contributes towards a coherent and coordinated public and institutional presence in defence of the common interests of the sector. In this area, the commitment to supporting the internationalization of our industry is a basic strategic line for the coming years.

Nuclear Forum supports the presence of our compa-nies abroad by participating in conferences, exhibitions, technical workshops, commercial missions and business meetings in collaboration with ICEX Spain, Exportation and Investments. In the last two years, this work has increased and commercial collaboration initiatives are cu-rrently scheduled with Saudi Arabia, Brazil, China, France, India, Mexico, United Arab Emirates and United Kingdom.

For all of these reasons, the companies from the Spanish nuclear industry that are presented herein are the best example and living proof that nuclear technology is not only preserved but is continuing to be developed in Spain, in order to support the nuclear power plants that are currently in operation and to attend an ever growing international nuclear market.

generation systems for the nuclear power plants that were built after that. This was due to the fact that, at the beginning of the Spanish nuclear programme, the decision was made not to constitute a company of systems linked by license to a foreign supplier, which would have meant having to choose a single type of reactor.

They currently provide support services to nuclear sites in operation and maintenance in more than 20 countries, such as for example, Germany, Belgium, Brazil, Bulgaria, China, Slovakia, Slovenia, United States, Finland, France, India, Japan, Mexico, United Kingdom, South Africa, Sweden, Taiwan, etc.

These companies work through agreements with Spanish companies with which they have developed strong technological links. This has led to as framework of mutual benefit, through which the Spanish industry has been able to participate in the development of nuclear projects all over the world.

The electrical companies focus their main activity on the production, transportation, distribution and commercialisation of electricity. However, the objective of these companies is to work permanently towards excellence in the management of nuclear power plants, with a commitment to long term production in a safe and reliable way and promoting growth in their areas of influence both from the social and environmental point of view.

In Spain, nuclear energy has represented approximately 20% of the total production of electricity in recent years. On a world scale, nuclear generation represents almost 15% with near to 440 reactors in operation in more than 30 countries and more than 70 reactors in construction in 16 countries.

These data have meant that a large number of Spanish companies have focused their activity in the nuclear sector, based on the experience of their participation in the development of the Spanish nuclear programme since its beginnings and are present in the whole chain of value.

All of this industrial structure has evolved with the circumstances of each moment, incorporating new technologies adapted to current needs and requisites and making it possible that Spanish companies are present today in nuclear projects in more than 40 countries, in four of the five continents.

Our industry also participates in international research and development projects for advanced nuclear reactors, in programmes based on nuclear fusion, such as the ITER International Project and in programmes based on high energy physics.

The companies that work in the nuclear sector are grouped in this catalogue according to the activity that they carry out.

SPANISH NUCLEAR INDUSTRY FORUM

7INTRODUCTION /

Some of these companies have laboratories for radiological analysis which offer an integral service that responds to all the needs of the sector and which are focused on the efficient and sustainable management of their activities.

Radwaste management in Spain is carried out by the National Radwaste Company, ENRESA. It is a public company and is an important international reference and example as its activities are studied and monitored by more than 15 countries around the world who have visited our site.

Very low, low and medium activity radwaste from nuclear sites, hospitals research centres and industry is managed in the Storage Centre in El Cabril, located in the province of Cordoba.

The fuel used in the nuclear power plants is kept in the onsite pools or in some cases, such as Trillo, Asco or Jose Cabrera, in the Individual Temporary Storage Facilities, located onsite, until the Centralised Temporary Storage Facility which is being built in the town of Villar de Cañas (Cuenca) is finished.

Among its activities it is also responsible for decommissioning nuclear and radioactive sites and was a pioneer in the decommissioning of the nuclear power plants of Vandellos I and Jose Cabrera.

Spanish Nuclear Industry Forum (Foro Nuclear) is a non-profit association which defends the pacific applications of nuclear energy and covers all of these companies and supports them in all the activities that they require.

Since the construction of the first nuclear power plant they have extended their actions to the study of the optimization of the performance, maintenance, management of improvements in equipment and procedures, management of the fuel cycle and the development of new reactors.

The Spanish electrical companies are capable of participating in an efficient manner in international markets undergoing a process of growing integration, globalisation and increase in competition.

The design, manufacture and supply of fuel to Spanish and international nuclear power plants is made by the public capital company ENUSA Industrias Avanzadas and is responsible for the supply of raw materials and their processing right through to the final elaboration of the product. It is the owner and operator of the fuel elements factory in Juzbado (Salamanca), one of the most innovative in Europe which, since the start of its operation in 1985, has manufactured more than 17,000 fuel elements for both Spanish and foreign nuclear power plants. In recent years, it had had significant international growth with more than 65% of its production going overseas.

The manufacture of capital equipment is made by Spanish companies who cover the production of main equipment to turbine alternators, valves, cranes, piping, boilers or equipment for handling the storage of fuel for both Spanish and foreign nuclear power plants, with a recognized level of quality. At present more than 80% of their annual production is exported.

At present, the whole portfolio of orders for the supply of large components as well as a high percentage of the rest of components of this group of companies is for exports.

The Spanish engineering and services companies have created an important engineering capacity for nuclear power plants, providing support in the management of the construction of new plants and in the operation and maintenance of the plants in operation, with a very diversified activity in which they export more than 60% of their annual production and in some cases up to 100%.

These companies have developed very specialised services such as the supply of simulators, training programmes for operators, in service inspection and the development of support and improvement systems in production. Their clients include all of the Spanish nuclear companies and a large number of foreign entities.

Recently, Foro Nuclear and its associated companies have become part of “Brand Spain”, a recognition and prestige for the numerous companies in the nuclear sector which have extensive activities beyond our frontiers.

The figures of the activity of our nuclear industry and the degree of internationalisation of their companies are the best proof of the competitiveness of the sector and the capacity of our professionals. At present the nuclear sector is a consolidated, prestigious industry that generates wealth and employment.

The aim of the catalogue of the Spanish nuclear industry is to reflect the reality of an open and dynamic sector in a growing international market.

Through their four phases of action, Support to the Industry, Technical Support, Communication and Education and Training it attends to the needs of the companies in the Spanish nuclear sector, at both a national and an international level.

In the area of Support to the Industry, Foro Nuclear coordinates the activities of the industry in different scenes, such as the participation in exhibitions with grouped pavilions, the organisation of business meetings among companies from different countries, the coordination of technical workshops in events of interest, etc.

For all of these activities it has the support of both national and international entities and institutions which gives it a greater diffusion and the possibility of reaching other companies that are not members of the Association.

Thanks to a collaboration agreement signed with ICEX Spain, Trade and Investment, Foro Nuclear is recognised as an agent responsible for providing services, in the name and representation of the entity, for the internationalisation of the nuclear sector companies, in the area of the management of aid relating to the promotion of internationalisation.

Through specific agreements with the commercial offices in Spain of those countries that are of interest for the companies in the nuclear sector, Foro Nuclear organises bilateral business meetings which make it possible to know the capacities of the participating companies and open up the possibility for collaboration among them, both in the countries that organise the meeting and in third countries.

Since that time, GE has developed nine evolutions of BWR technology including the (ABWR) Advanced Boiling water Reactor, the world’s first operational Generation III Class design. And, most recently, the ESBWR, our latest Generation III+ Class design that combines advanced safety features, improved economics, and new operational efficiencies.

NUCLEAR POWER PLANT PROjECTS

Advanced Boiling Water Reactor (ABWR)

The ABWR is the world’s first and only Generation III nuclear plant design in operation today, providing the benefit of a combined 25 reactor-years of operational experience. GE’s first ABWR began commercial operation at Kashiwazaki-Kariwa in Japan, in 1996.

GE Hitachi Nuclear Energy (GEH) is a world-leading provider of advanced reactors and nuclear services. Established in June 2007, GEH is a global nuclear alliance created by GE and Hitachi to serve the global nuclear industry.

The alliance executes a single, strategic vision to create a broader portfolio of solutions, expanding its capabilities for new reactor and service opportunities. The alliance offers customers around the world the technological leadership required to effectively enhance reactor performance, power output and safety.

Currently three additional ABWRs are operating in Japan, two under construction in Japan, and two in Taiwan. The ABWR is licensed in the U.S., Japan and Taiwan.

Economic and Simplified Boiling Water Reactor (ESBWR)

The is a GEH-designed Generation III+ reactor currently in the U.S. Design Certification process. This simplified design provides improved safety, excellent economics ratio, better plant security, a broad seismic design envelope and operational flexibility that increase plant availability. It is a simplified reactor design, allowing faster construction and lower operating costs.

Power Reactor Innovative Small Modular (PRISM)

The PRISM is a reactor that uses liquid sodium as a coolant. This coolant allows the neutrons in the reactor to have a higher energy (sometimes called fast-reactors) that drive fission of the transuranics, converting them into short-lived “fission products.” This reaction produces heat energy, which is converted into electrical energy in a conventional steam turbine.

Global Nuclear Fuel (GNF)

GNF is a world-leading supplier of boiling water reactor fuel, including uranium dioxide and MOX fuel and fuel-related engineering services. GNF operates primarily through Global Nuclear Fuel-Americas, LLC in Wilmington, N.C., and Global Nuclear Fuel-Japan Co. Ltd. in Kurihama, Japan. GNF continues to strategically expand the nuclear fuel cycle by offering customers an extensive portfolio of dependable and innovative fuel solutions.

The staff working at the Ascó and Vandellós II Nuclear Power Plants play a major role in the daily routine of the sites. With over 2,300 jobs shared among staff from ANAV (45%) and from stable cooperating companies, ANAV is a beacon of economic growth not just for the province of Tarragona but also for the whole of Cataluña.

In this regard, recent studies conducted by the Department of Economics of the Rovira i Virgili University in Tarragona show that the economic impact of the activities of the ANAV sites and that of its staff members multiply by four the generation of wealth and jobs in Cataluña. This effect is especially intense in the province of Tarragona, where the direct, indirect and induced impact of ANAV and its workers represents approximately 3% of the province’s Gross Domestic Product.

ASCÓ NUCLEAR POWER PLANT

The Ascó Nuclear Power Plant is located on the right bank of the Ebro River in the district of Ribera dÉbre, in the municipal area of Ascó in the province of Tarragona. It´s Construction began in 1972 and 81% of the construction and equipment assembly work was carried out by Spanish companies.

The Ascó Nuclear Power Plant has two pressurised water reactors (PWR), the cooling water for the two units being provided by the Ebro River.

In 1998, as a result of a merger between the companies that independently managed the Ascó and Vandellós II nuclear power plants, an economic interest group known as Asociación Nuclear Ascó-Vandellós II (ANAV) was born. The rather similar technologies of both plants, and their relatively close locations, led their owner utilities to integrate them into a common management company.

ANAV’s work is committed to the safe, reliable, long lasting and environment-friendly operation of the Ascó and Vandellós II to produce electric energy, an essential element for economic and social development.

This commitment is embodied both in the Group’s investments on the Plants to guarantee their safe and long term operation, and in direct actions on the territory, with activities that promote economic, social and cultural development of the towns in the influence areas of both Plants.

Unit I of the Plant, with a thermal power of 2,953.8 MWt and an electric output of 1,032.5 MWe, is the property of ENDESA, and it initiated its commercial operation on December 10th, 1984.

Unit II, with a thermal power of 2,953.8 MWt and an electrical output of 1,027.2 MWe, is jointly owned by ENDESA (85%) and IBERDROLA (15%), and it initiated its commercial operation on March 30th, 1986.

In recent years, both units at the Plant have recovered load factors over 90%,

this of course depending on whether the necessary shutdowns take place during the year in order to reload fuel and carry out preventive maintenance activities. This evolution brings with it a progressive increase in investments as well as operation and maintenance costs, which in 2013 exceeded 90 million euros in investments destined to renew and update the Plant’s systems and equipment, so as to guarantee the safety and reliability of both units and the 197 million € in operation and maintenance costs.

The Ascó Nuclear Power Plant has a staff of nearly 500 people, of which approximately half are university graduates. It must be

added that the Plant has over 750 staff members from stable cooperating companies and that during reload periods there is an addition of between 800 and 1,000 workers from around 35 local companies.

In 2011, ANAV opened an Information Center at the Ascó site that it has already received more than 10,000 visitors. This project responds to ANAV’s multiple goals to promote a public approach to energy and how nuclear power plants work, generating an added value that complements the offer of Ribera d’Ebre to attract visitors to the area and attend to demand of visits to the Plant.

Throughout 2013 the operation of the Cofrentes nuclear power plant was normal, without incidents worthy of mention. The events reported to the regulatory body were all level zero, below the INES scale, without any significance for safety.

In 2013, the Cofrentes nuclear power plant generated a total of 8,325.3 GWh, with the reactor coupled to the electrical grid 7,801 hours in the year out of a possible 8,760 possible hours, considering the shutdown time for the performance of the refuelling outage which was 936 hours, equivalent to 39 days.

As a special fact worthy of mention in 2013 is the 19th refuelling outage which started on 22nd September and finished on 31st October, with a duration of 39 days during which more than 14,000 maintenance tasks and plant equipment and component inspection and tests were carried out.

Last year Iberdrola invested 62 million euro in the plant. Of these, 21 million were targeted specifically at the refuelling outage during which, among other activities, 49 design modifications were carried out. These have helped to improve the site, updating it with the latest technologies thus providing an increase in its operating efficiency and safety. For this outage 1345 professionals were contracted through a hundred or so collaborating companies as support for plant staff, 657 employees, 373 of them are from the Iberdrola staff.The other 41 million euro were invested in the modernisation and technological adaptation of all the plant systems and components.

During 2013, the Santa Maria de Garoña nuclear power plant did not generate electricity although it kept its technical and organisational capacities intact. The reason for this situation is of an economic nature, not technical; the new nuclear taxation approved at the end of 2012 makes the continuity of the site economically unviable.

The Santa Maria de Garoña nuclear power plant is located in the province of Burgos, on the meander formed by the Ebro river near the town with the same name in the Valley of Tobalina, at the foot of the Sobron dam.

It is the property of Nuclenor S.A. (Iberdrola 50% and Endesa 50%) which started its business activity in 1967 and was the pioneer in Spain in the use of nuclear energy for the generation of electricity.

Since its beginning, Ensa has had the appropriate infrastructure, technology and human resources necessary to meet the highest standards in the areas of engineering, design, procurement, quality assurance, design, manufacturing, inspection and services. Ensa facility includes a workshop capable of manufacturing the biggest nuclear components and an Advanced Technology Centre for the development and qualification of innovative manufacturing and inspection techniques, which include accredited laboratories that can supply services both to Ensa and to external customers. Known in the nuclear industry as a preferred manufacturer for the high quality of its products and the high technology of its manufacturing processes, Ensa fabrication specializes in components such as reactor vessels including internals, supports and cover heads, steam generators, primary circuit piping, pressurizers, heat exchangers, fuel elements bundle heads, used fuel casks for storage and transport and fuel racks for both new and used fuel. In its almost forty years of existence Ensa has provided, following recognized international standards and meeting the most demanding quality requirements, equipment operating with the required security in nuclear plants of multiple and varied designs located throughout the world. This has made Ensa a distinguished multisystem capable manufacturer, able to successfully provide the most demanding nuclear components based on continuous research and development of new and competitive manufacturing technologies for each of the different nuclear designs in the market.

Equipos Nucleares, S.A. (Ensa) was established on 10th July 1973 with the immediate purpose of meeting the demands of the Spanish civil nuclear manufacturing of large components. The construction of the facility, located in Maliaño (Cantabria), south of the bay of Santander and very close to the city, was performed during 1975 and 1976, when the manufacturing operations of the first equipment for the Spanish market started. Especially conceived and designed for the civil nuclear industry, Ensa got its first ASME nuclear certification in 1978 delivering the first component, the reactor vessel for Valdecaballeros Nuclear Power Plant, in 1981. In 1980, after the creation of the Business Development & Field Services department, Ensa started performing works at the nuclear power plants such as installation, commissioning, fuel management, plant maintenance, decontamination and dismantling. Since 1986 Ensa has a majority ownership of ENWESA, a company mainly dedicated to provide services at nuclear power plants.

Ensa’s headquarters are located in Madrid and it belongs to SEPI Group, a holding company that owns directly or in majority a total of 16 public companies, with a workforce of more than 75,000 professionals. SEPI (Sociedad Estatal de Participaciones Industriales) also owns the Spanish Radio and Television Corporation, over which it has jurisdiction. In addition, SEPI has minority ownership of seven other companies, and indirect participation in more than 100 companies.

ENSA S INTERNATIONALIZATION

With the technology and quality as the main pillars of the company, the successful orientation to the international market started in the late eighties and now accounts for over 90% of the manufacturing equipment and over 50% of the service provided to plants. Ensa is involved in demanding markets such as Chinese, French, U.S., Taiwan, Argentina, Slovakia, Belgium, South Africa, etc. Currently, all major equipment portfolio and equipment being manufactured in Ensa have a destination for the international market. Focusing only on the NSSS (Nuclear Steam Supply System) components, only three of the thirty-seven major components manufactured by Ensa until 1986 were made for the international market, a percentage lower than 10%. However, this situation changed significantly in the late eighties beginning a rapid increase in exports. Twenty-six large equipment were exported between 1988 and 1995. Although the Spanish market demand, a priority for Ensa, restarted in the mid-nineties due to the need of replacement of components in power plants in operation, only three components of a total of eighty-eight have been provided to this market since 1997. This means that the internationalization

RECENT NUCLEAR REFERENCES

ATCClient: Iberdola / Gas Natural. Project: Probabilistic non linear SSI of a Nuclear Facility Location: Villar de Cañas, Spain

The scope of our mission was to conduct a seismic analysis of two of the main units of the facility (Lot 2 and Lot 3). To evaluate the seismic loads, DYNAMIS performed probabilistic nonlinear soil structure interaction analysis. In addition to that, instead of using Fast Fourier Transformation to calculate the response due to transient motion, DYNAMIS used a new approach based on the Random Vibration Theory (RVT) to calculate the statistical mean of the frequency-dependent responses. In this approach, input motion is specified as a mean acceleration response spectrum at a specified damping ratio.

RISK ASSESSMENT

Managing risk is an essential part of any business process. Business interruption, loss of market share, litigation, environmental and safety issues, as well as the cost of insuring these risks, can impact a company’s profitability and reputation.

Successfully managing these risks is an important strategy if a company is to remain competitive. We provide site-specific and portfolio risk analyses for natural perils (earthquakes, hurricanes, typhoons, and floods) and for man-made perils (terrorism and blasts).

DYNAMIS utilizes “Performance Based Design” concepts and applies them to existing facilities. Risk Assessment services include:

• Site performance assessment• Risk engineering• Strategic risk management consulting• Disaster mitigation• Disaster reconstruction

CENTRO GESTION EMERGENCIAS C.N. COFRENTES / C.N. TRILLOClient: Iberdrola Project: Probabilistic non linear SSI of a Nuclear Facility Location: Cofrentes/Trillo, Spain

The scope of our mission was to conduct a seismic analysis. DYNAMIS has provided full characterization of the soil (dynamic stiffness and damping ratios – frequently dependent) so our client can perform seismic analysis including the soil-structure interaction accurately.

BREST DRY DOCKClient: Cementys / SID Project: Bassin n°9 Location: Port de Brest, France

DYNAMIS evaluated the seismic stability of the dry dock supporting nuclear submarines, taking into account the detected prestress losses in the anchors. The value engineering applied allowed us to come up with a highly-optimized reinforcement.

NUCLEAR CONTEXT

After a low in the 1990s, recent years have seen the worldwide nuclear industry regain momentum and experience important growth. However, the accident at Fukushima damaged public opinion of nuclear energy.For all countries that produce or use nuclear energy, it prompted a review of safety policy, particularly risk management practices. Since the accident, all countries have reinforced their regulatory frameworks, and created new rules or updated standards and codes.

structural elements of nuclear facilities based on:- Standard ISO-fire curve analysis.- Real fire curve analysis.• Fire safety design of nuclear facilities and assistance to design of fire protection systems (active and passive).• Training of nuclear fire safety standards (NFPA, AFCEN, etc.).

SOME REFERENCES

THE SAFETY CONFINEMENT ARCH OF CHERNOBYL NPPThe project consists in the construction of a steel arch covering the Chernobyl NPP unit 4 to contain the radioactive elements and to protect against weather aggression during the dismantling of the unit. EFECTIS carried out a fire engineering study on the steel arch structure of the NSC Arch in case of a real fire, that is a fire of the bituminous part of the roof over the existing building (Turbine Hall and De-aerator Stack). This mission involved the fire engineering services of Efectis France (modelling – numerical approach) as well as the laboratory (fire tests – experimental approach).

A benchmark between EFECTIS France and the IETP (Institute of Engineering Thermo Physics of the National Academy of Science of Ukraine) was organized to perform a compared analysis of the fire development and thermal calculation methodologies and software: results and conclusions were very similar. The same approach was performed with success for mechanical calculations with the Ukrainian institute URDISC. Through different steps of validation by the Ukrainian authorities, EFECTIS was able to prove its scientific capabilities and know-how in a specific and complex context.

Temperatures inside the reactor building (CIGEO)

CIGEO PROJECTEFECTIS is involved since 2012 in the Cigéo project: deep geological disposal of spent fuel and high-level (HL) and intermediate level long-lived (IL-LL) waste. Fire safety is indeed a major challenge for Cigéo, both in terms of nuclear safety and safety of personnel and firemen, in operational areas as well as in areas under construction.

Fire simulation (Chernobyl)

FLAMANVILLE EPR PROJECT

• Qualification of all fire products.

• Fire & waterproof-seismic tests to assess the fire resistance of penetration seal systems after seismic loading. A testing program is to make comparative analysis and to determine the influence of seismic loading on fire resistance.

• More than 1000 on-site diagnosis per year. More recently, we have performed 20 on-site assessments of special configurations for EPR NPP construction, in order to attest the fire resistance performance to the Nuclear Safety Authority.

• Building reactor vulnerability study: fire scenario models to determine the thermal stress (temperature and heat flux) on 250 strategic targets inside the reactor building.

The contribution of EFECTIS in this project mobilizes a wide range of skills such as fire risk analysis, smoke extraction and ventilation in case of fire, fire development modelling, fire behaviour of structures and performances of fire safety equipment, but taking into account the fire behaviour in tunnel, mines, nuclear installation. Efectis was also selected to perform the first fire resistance test of the concrete protective packaging of radioactive waste in order to justify the fire resistance efficiency in case of fire.

Radioactive waste management and decommisioning of nuclear instalations in Spain has adquired international prestige.

108-115

environmental restoration of the uranium mines.

In order to perform its tasks, ENRESA follows the guidelines contained in the General Radwaste Plan (PGRR) which is approved periodically by the Government and which is the public document that establishes the strategies, actions and technical solutions for the management of radwaste in our country as well as its economic and financial planning.

The financing system established, based on collecting the future costs of management in advance, guarantees that future generations will not have to take on the costs generated in the past. The financing of radwaste management is independent of the general state budgets.

Nuclear power plants and sites, like some hospitals, laboratories and industries, are obliged to pay the costs of radwaste management through the application of specific duties.

For the very low, low and medium activity waste the El Cabril site offers the definitive solution for centralized storage.

Spent fuel from nuclear power plants and high activity waste require another type of facility: the Temporary Centralised Storage facility which will be built in Villar de Cañas (Cuenca) to give a solution to the intermediate management of this type of waste. Its work centres are located in:

• Madrid, where the main office is located.• El Cabril, in the province of Cordoba, where the final management of very low, low and medium radwaste takes place.

The nuclear energy applications for the production of electrical energy and the use of radioactive chemical elements in the field of medicine, industry and research generate radwaste.

In 1984 the Spanish parliament decided to create the National Radwaste Company (ENRESA), as a public non-profit making entity responsible for the management of the radwaste produced in Spain.

Its main competences are: the collection, transportation, treatment, storage and control of the radwaste from Spanish nuclear power plants and from facilities that use radioactive materials, the decommissioning of nuclear and radioactive sites no longer in use and the

• The Vandellos I nuclear power plant, in the province of Tarragona, which ended its activity in 1989 and has been decommissioned by ENRESA to level 2 in the IAEA classification.• The Jose Cabrera nuclear power plant, in the province of Guadalajara, which was shut down in 2006 and is currently in the decommissioning phase.• Villar de Cañas, in the province of Cuenca, where the Temporary Centralised Storage facility will be built.


The work carried out by ENRESA is: • Design, implementation and coordination of integrated systems for the collection and management of radwaste from multiple producers.• Characterisation of sites and the planning, design, safety assessment, licensing, construction and operation of radwaste deposits.• Planning, design and implementation of solutions to increase the capacity of the intermediate storage of nuclear fuel and high activity radwaste.• Development of strategies, licensing and execution of decommissioning projects for nuclear power plants and other sites with the first part of the nuclear fuel cycle.• Design and execution of rehabilitation projects for abandoned uranium mines.• Preparation, design and coordination of R+D plans for the management of radwaste.• Planning, design, construction and operation of infrastructures for informing the public and visitor centres related with the radwaste management sites.• Engineering and services.

109WASTE MANAGEMENT AND DECOMMISSIONING /

Organisationally Enresa reports to the Ministry of Industry, Tourism and Energy (MINETUR) and 80% of its shares belong to CIEMAT (the Centre for Energy, Environmental and Technological Research) and 20% to the State Society of Industrial Participations (SEPI).

The relationship with the Spanish parliament is also worthy of mention. Enresa reports on its activities and projects, communicates legislative need and reports on the technological innovations in its area of action.

As a public company, Enresa is subject to the regulatory control of several entities:• The Ministry of Industry, Energy and Tourism is the entity responsible for establishing the policy to be followed in the management of radwaste.• The Spanish Regulator is the authority in Spain in matters of nuclear safety and radiological protection.• The Fund Monitoring and Control Committee for the financing of the activities of the PGRR is the inter-ministerial committee responsible for supervising and controlling transient investments related with the financial management carried out by Enresa.

Finally, Enresa participates regularly in several technical assistance projects on Eastern European countries, Australia, Canada and Latin America to improve and adapt its radwaste management systems.

As a requirement of the International Atomic Energy Agency, the Nuclear Energy Agency and the European Union it gives support to these organizations in the form of consultation and cooperation missions.

The low and medium activity waste is comprised of materials contaminated with radioactive isotopes which will reduce their radioactivity by half in less than 30 years. The may be tools, work clothes, medical instruments and other materials used in some industries, hospitals, research laboratories and nuclear power plants.

The very low activity waste, within the group of low and medium waste, which have less requisites for their management because of their low radioactive content, are solid materials, generally scrap and rubble, which are minimally contaminated with radioactive isotopes. Most of this waste comes from the decommissioning of nuclear power plants and from special interventions for the recovery of contaminated land or installations.The features of the El Cabril site are:

• Remote control: It is operated from a control room, thus minimising the dose to operators.

• Solidification: The waste is stored in a solid form and therefore there are no liquid effluents or gas leaks in the stored material.

• Seismic resistance: Capable of withstanding the largest earthquake expected in the area.

• Recoverability: The waste storage containers can be extracted, if required.

The storage system at El CabrilIt is based fundamentally on the positioning of engineering barriers and natural barriers which safely isolate the materials stored in them for the time necessary for them to become harmless substances.

There are two lines of management at El Cabril according to the radiological features of the waste:

This low and medium activity radwaste storage centre belonging to the National Radwaste Company (Enresa) started its operation in October 1992 and is located in the town of Hornachuelos, in Sierra Albarrana, in the province of Cordoba.

El Cabril has two platforms for the storage of low and medium activity radwaste and another with specific structures for those with a very low activity. The site also has the necessary means for treating and conditioning the waste that requires either of these processes.

This centre is a surface type site which stores the low and medium activity waste in 28 concrete cells with a total capacity of almost 50,000 m3. The specific structure for the low activity waste started to operate in El Cabril in 2008, providing an additional capacity of 130,000 m3. The centre has facilities for the treatment and conditioning of waste by compacting, immobilization and incineration.

• For the low and medium activity waste (RBMA), the system consists of positioning the following barriers: waste conditioned in a sold status, concrete container, concrete storage cells and artificial and natural covering .

• For the very low activity waste (RBBA), the systems consist of positioning the following barriers: waste conditioned in a sold status, concrete storage cells comprising artificial and natural covering layers.

In both cases and in order to guarantee the correct performance of the barriers here are infiltration and leaching control systems.

Radwaste managementThe very low, low and medium activity waste in any part of Spain arrive at El Cabril and are unloaded into a conditioning building or into one of the temporary storage units. Most of it arrives conditioned although the waste that comes from hospitals, research centres o industries and special interventions are treated and conditioned onsite at El Cabril.

The drums received are introduced into concrete structures whose capacity is 18 x 220 litre drums. When a container is full, the drums are immobilized using injected mortar. This compact block is introduced into the storage cell, which is a reinforced concrete structure.

Once the storage cell is complete with 320 containers the upper closing slab is made with reinforced concrete and it is waterproofed.

Each of the 28 storage cells has a sump connected to the infiltration control network located under the platforms. This makes it possible to detect possible filtrations of water which can be corrected if they appear.

• The transportation programme is also sent to the General Directorate of Civil Protection, to the Civil Guard, to the Subdelegation of the Government in Cordoba and to other responsible entities.

• Other entities, such as the town halls in the area, the Regional Government of Andalucia or the Regional Government of Extremadura periodically receive reports and summaries of activities and of the radiological surveillance and environmental plan.

Enresa also performs internal and external audits that check that the management systems implemented at El Cabril are

Once the capacity of the platforms is complete, they are covered with a final covering of several layers, the last of which is soil in an attempt to integrate them into the environment.

At this time the monitoring and control phase of the site begins. It will last 60 years for very low activity waste and 300 years for the low and medium activity waste.

Authority controlEnresa periodically sends official reports and documents to different authorities describing and specifying their activities:

• The Spanish Regulatory Body and the General Directorate of Energy and Mines receive an official monthly report from Enresa with details of the activities carried

adapted as established. The main external audit is made by the Spanish Regulator which is the competent authority in matters of nuclear safety and radiological protection.

No radiological influence from the activity of the site has been detected in the surrounding area since El Cabril started operating.

Water, air, soil. food, fish, game and vegetation samples are taken every year in order to monitor the levels of environmental radioactivity and to keep the Regulator informed.

Level 1: It defines the period immediately after the final shutdown of a nuclear power plant and covers the process of leaving the plant in a safe condition for the decommissioning work, removing the spent fuel, the waste in operation and those auxiliary buildings that are no longer needed.

Level 2: Its purpose is to dismantle the buildings and plants outside the shielding. The radwaste resulting from this is stored offsite and the reactor is sealed.

Level 3: This includes the removal of the nuclear reactor with its shielding and the final rehabilitation of the site leaving a free space.

The decommissioning process is generally carried out using a remote control or command system, according to the associated level of radiological activity. In any case, the presence of workers is limited by the level of radiation and, when necessary, a period of waiting is established until the activity decreases to acceptable levels for the work to be carried out in the specific conditions established for it.

VANDELLÓS I NUCLEAR POWER PLANT

Vandellos I began its operation in 1972 and ceased its activity in 1989 after 17 years of operation, due to the consequences of a fire that significantly affected the conventional buildings. The owner decided to close the plant and decommission it given the high cost of returning to activity, in compliance with the requisites established by the Spanish Nuclear Regulator (CSN).

On 30th June 2003 Enresa completed level 2 of the decommissioning process (which made it possible to release a large part of the plant site) and to continue with phase 3 which will be completed with the closing of the reactor.

The decommissioning of a nuclear power plant is a complex process which requires the participation of several industrial organisations. It is subjected to strict regulation and includes strategic analyses that specify the scope of the work in each case. Spain has the technology and sufficient resources to decommission nuclear power plants in a completely safe manner.

The field of closing site, Spain is in an outstanding position within the international panorama, thanks mainly to the projects that have been completed in the uranium concentrates factory (Andujar) and the rehabilitation of old uranium mines (La Haba) as well as those that are in the decommissioning process: the Vandellos I and Jose Cabrera power plants.

The decommissioning of a nuclear power plant in Spain, which is financed with the IPGRR Activities Financing Fund, is carried out by Enresa and consists of a sequenced set of technical actions to dismantle and manage the waste resulting from the structures, systems and components of a nuclear or radioactive site after it is closed. These actions are carried out in stages which progressively reduce the radiological risk at the site.

In accordance with the terminology used by the IAEA, there are three levels in the decommissioning process of nuclear power plants:

During 2004 the site was prepared for the latency phase (with a duration of 25 years) from the functional point of view and from the structuring of the organisation and of personnel.

Since then, and following the favourable evaluation of the CSN on 15th December 2004, the site has had a license to remain in a passive status, with the corresponding monitoring to guarantee its safety, storing certain radioactive materials and guaranteeing the confinement of the remaining structures. This will be in force until the second stage of decommissioning is initiated.

The latency period is a waiting period of about 25 years which gives for a significant reduction of the radiological levels. After this, in 2028 the conditions for dismantling the remaining structures, basically the concrete structure of building that houses the reactor will be more favourable. This will become level 3 with the total release of the site.

At the beginning of the latency period Enresa built the Mestral Technological Centre at the Vandellos I site. Its purpose is to develop R+D projects on Decommissioning Projects within Enresa’s general R+D plan. Since it was built in 2004, 30 projects have been developed, mainly in collaboration with the Rovira i Virgili University in Tarragona.

The maintenance and surveillance work at the plant consist of continuously monitoring the physical parameters of temperature, moisture and pressure inside the reactor in a passive status and in the periodical performance of watertightness tests on the reactor and on the corrosion status of the internal materials.

CE 2b concrete containers with the exception of those parts whose radiological features made it necessary to store them in four HI-SAFE containers in the Temporary Individualised Storage onsite. On 31st October 2013 the fourth container was stored. This completed the operation and therefore the management process of the radwaste from the reactor internals. The following challenge is to segment the vessel and carry out the same conditioning process.

Together with this work, in 2013 the activities to dismantle the rest of the large components of the primary circuit, such as the pressuriser the main pump and the steam generator have continued.

This is the first time a decommissioning of this nature has taken place in Spain. This had made the work being carried out a technical reference at an international level.

The decommissioning is scheduled to be completed in 2017 and an average of 250 people were used in the different tasks.

ENVIROMENTAL RESTORATIONS

From the extraction of uranium in the field to loading it as fuel in the nuclear power plants the mineral passes through several sites; uranium mine, concentrate factories and fuel element factories. Enresa is responsible for restoring these places once the activity at them has been discontinued.

Environmental restoration of uranium minesIn Spain uranium mining has existed traditionally in Spain, specifically in the deposits in Castilla y Leon, Extremadura and Andalucia. This mining activity was started in 1948 and finished in 2000 with the closing of the last site in Salamanca.Since 1997 Enresa has progressively

jOSÉ CABRERA NUCLEAR POWER PLANT

The Jose Cabrera nuclear power plant is located in Almonacid de Zorita (Guadalajara) and was the first nuclear power plant to start operation in our country in 1968. After 38 years of operation and following a Ministerial Order it ended its activity on 30th April 2006.During 2009, the spent fuel in the plant pool was loaded, transferred and stored in 12 containers (Temporary Individualised Storage).

On 11th February 2010, Enresa took over the responsibility of the Jose Cabrera nuclear power plant and since then has been carrying out decommissioning and decontamination work.

In 2012 the decommissioning of the plant reached one of the most important points in the Project: the opening of the reactor vessel head and the start of the segmentation of its internal components.

This segmentation work, which is carried out under water and with robotic mechanical cutting tools with the support of a system of television cameras, started with the so called upper internals and in mid 2012 the segmentation of the lower internals started.

During 2013 the fourth HI-SAFE container for special waste was incorporated into the Temporary Individualised Storage, thus culminating the integral management of all the internal components of the site’s nuclear reactor.

In 2013 the process for the underwater segmentation of the internals was also completed and they were extracted, prepared and sent to the waste storage facility of El Cabril. Most of the parts obtained were prepared in type CE 2a/

developed tasks aimed at their environmental restoration which is basically filling in the sites, sealing the gaps, stabilising the land and the slopes and gradients and recovering the topography and the regeneration of its vegetation.

Environmental restoration of uranium concentrate manufacturing facilities

In parallel with the disappearance of uranium mining, the sites dedicated to the treatment of the material have also been closed. At present there are none in operation and Enresa has worked on the decommissioning and environmental restoration of: the uranium concentrates factory in Andujar (FUA) in Jaen, the La Haba plant in Badajoz and the Elefante plant is Saelices el Chico (Salamanca).

These site are currently in the monitoring phase as the decommissioning and environmental restoration activities have been completed.

Managing radwaste using a site like this is the solution adopted by most developed countries as they have the necessary proven technology that guarantees its safe storage.

TECHNICAL FEATURES

The ATC is an industrial site authorised to dry store the spent fuel that until now was stored in pools at the power plants and the high activity waste that is produced in Spain for 60 years. The waste is prepared and isolated in sealed capsules inside a shielded concrete building.

The nuclear area will occupy a surface of 32 hectares and will be 398 metres long, 271 metres wide and 26 metres high. The walls of the ATC will be 1.7 metres thick and the air ducts for heat removal from the storage buildings will be 45 metres above ground level.

There will be five main areas which will make it possible to complete the processes required for the management of these materials. The technology used guarantees the confinement of the radioactive material

Spain must continue to advance in the management of spent fuel and high activity radwaste just as it did previously with low and medium activity radwaste. Some pools at nuclear power plants are reaching saturation and shortly the waste of this type currently stored in France would have to be brought back. At the end of 2004 Parliament encourage the Government to start a project to build a Centralised Temporary Storage facility (ATC) and on 29th December 2009 the Official State Bulletin (BOE) published the beginning of the selection process for the candidates to house the facility and its associated technological centre, On 20th January 2010 the BOE published that the town chosen was Villar de Cañas (Cuenca).

The ATC is an industrial site designed to store and monitor the irradiated fuel and high activity radwaste that is produced in Spain in a single place, without the need to build a storage facility for each plant.

This decision reduces the number of storage sites and also makes it possible to comply with the repatriation clauses for reprocessed spent fuel from abroad.

using adequate shielding and cooling it with a natural passive convection system.

• Reception building. Metallic structure where the vehicles transporting the waste will arrive.

• Process building. A structure with concrete walls where different mechanical processes in two independent lines, one for fuel and another for the rest of the waste.

• Service and auxiliary systems building. Concrete structure, a prolongation of the previous building for auxiliary facilities (personnel access, ventilation equipment, electricity supply, etc). • Storage modules. Each module comprises two very thick concrete domes with independent air inlets and outlets. There are 120 storage tubes in each dome. • Medium activity waste storage building. It will store the waste which cannot be stored at El Cabril in Cordoba. One feature of the ATC is its reversibility, as it includes the recovery of the waste for the following stage of management once the storage period has elapsed.

In order to be able to carry out these functions safely, the absence of chain reactions, the confinement of the radioactive material, the shielding of the radiation and decay heat removal were applied as basic criteria in the design of the site.

The spent fuel and radwaste that will be stored in this site will be perfectly inventoried as described in the General Radwaste Plan which has been approved by the Government.

The second cover of the container is then removed to be able to unload the spent fuel. The fuel is then put into stainless steel capsules in a hot shielded and remotely operated cell and then transferred to the storage tubers where they may be kept for up to 60 years.

The following will be stored in the ATC:

HOW DOES IT WORK?

The materials will reach the reception building in containers certified for transport. There they will be unloaded and placed vertically using a bridge crane and then transferred on a trolley to the process area where the first cover is removed and a check is made to verify that they have not lost their watertightness.

A WORLD UNDISPUTABLE LEADERSHIP

Concerning labor and Ebitda, concessions and services activity of member major groups have a greater relevance than construction itself, a situation which is derived mainly from the clear world leadership position of those companies in the rankings published by the American review Public Works Financing (PWF) related to world transport infrastructures under construction and/or operation since 1985. Diversification and export activity, together with high technological capability and high financial soundness of those companies places them as world leaders in transport infrastructure concessions (roads, bridges, tunnels, railways, harbours and airports) by number of contracts under construction and operation since 1985 until October 2013 with an investment of more than 50 million US$. Among the top ten world leaders there are four Spanish companies. The Spanish companies belonging to SEOPAN among the top ten are:

• ACS/Iridium.• FCC/Global Vía.• Abertis.• Ferrovial/Cintra.
