Aspects of Governance in the Practical Implementation of the Concept of Reversibility for Deep Geological Disposal
Aspects of Governance in the Practical Implementation of the Concept of Reversibility for Deep Geological Disposal
The European project COWAM in Practice (CIP) was aimed to lead for three years (2007-2009) a process of monitoring, analyzing and evaluating the governance linked with radioactive waste management. This project, in cooperation with a research group and stakeholders, was conducted in parallel in 5 European countries (Spain, France, United Kingdom, Romania, Slovenia).

Public Values and Stakeholder Involvement - A New Framework for Performance Assessment
Public Values and Stakeholder Involvement - A New Framework for Performance Assessment
The objective of the RISCOM II project is to share the knowledge of the context of radioactive waste management in various European countries and to see to what extent it is possible to apply more widely the RISCOM Model (Andersson et al., 1998) in order to improve the acceptability of radioactive waste management. Thus, the project aims to promote the development of processes involving transparency, as well as means involving greater participation of the public.

Reflecting on the Implementing Geological Disposal Technology Platform as a knowledge network and potential scenarios for stakeholder involvement
Reflecting on the Implementing Geological Disposal Technology Platform as a knowledge network and potential scenarios for stakeholder involvement
This report was prepared in the context of Work Package 3 of the InSOTEC project. The overall objective of this work package (WP) is to take a closer look at arenas where socio-technical combinations on radioactive waste management (RWM) are formed. The attempt is to illustrate the interconnections between the sources of different types of information and knowledge development with the various stakeholders having access to that information.
Annual Report 2010 on Radiation and Nuclear Safety in the Republic of Slovenia
Annual Report 2010 on Radiation and Nuclear Safety in the Republic of Slovenia
In 2010, there were no events that posed a serious radiological threat to the population in Slovenia. There were also no particularities in relation to the services of radiation practices and operators of radiation facilities.
The Krško NPP operated without shutdowns and production was interrupted only for the annual outage. In 2010, the power plant produced 5.7 TWh in total and achieved 89.9% availability. The nuclear power plant had no major problems during the September floods, when the Sava river otherwise seriously threatened settlements in Posavje.

Identifying remaining socio-technical challenges at the national level: Slovenia
Identifying remaining socio-technical challenges at the national level: Slovenia
The use of nuclear energy has a strong tradition in Slovenia. In 1949 the Institute Josef Stefan was founded, devoted to research in physics, with great emphasis on nuclear physics. A few years later (1966) the research nuclear reactor TRIGA started to work in the vicinity of capital city Ljubljana, to support its research.
