Angra Plants Gain Dry Storage Unit for Irradiated Fuels (UAS), Approved by Ibama This Week

As Four Foreign Groups Compete for the Completion of the Third Plant, another controversial issue regarding the nuclear plants in Angra made significant progress.
Ibama issued this week the installation license for the Dry Storage Unit for Irradiated Fuels (UAS) of the Angra 1 and 2 nuclear plants.

The unit will be used to temporarily receive the used fuels from both plants until the federal government determines where to store them permanently.
The UAS will require investments of around R$ 246 million, and Ibama conditioned the license approval on the presentation by Eletronuclear of a proposal for a study simulating the maximum thermal influence of UAS operation on the local ecosystem.
As well as the presentation of data on Information Center, Helipad, and the nearest point to BR-101 in relation to the unit.

Even with Ibama’s approval, the UAS will still depend on another license, issued by the CNEN (National Commission of Nuclear Energy), for the construction and operation authorization of the unit.
The unit is located outside the plants’ areas, and the forecast for receiving the first used fuels from Angra 1 and 2 is set for 2021.

Currently, there are 222 fuel elements from Angra 1 and 288 from Angra 2 to be removed from the plants, stored in pools located in the nuclear facilities.

In a recent visit to China by the Minister of Mines and Energy Bento Albuquerque, the Chinese reaffirmed their interest not only in Angra 3 but also in other plants that should be constructed by 2050.
Currently, Brazil has two operational plants (Angra 1 and 2), which represent 1.1% of the country’s energy generation.
