Governments, regulators and nuclear power plant operators can act upon the lessons of the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant accident in 2011 to continuously enhance safety, said experts at a 17 September event held during the IAEA General Conference. The event introduced ‘The Fukushima Daiichi Accident – Report by the Director General and Technical Volumes’ to Member State representatives, conference delegates and the media.
“This report will be valuable to all countries using or planning to use nuclear power in their continuous efforts to improve safety,” said IAEA Director General Yukiya Amano in his opening remarks.
The report and the technical volumes it draws on provide lessons from the accident and a knowledge base for the future.
“The motto that you need to expect the unexpected is essential and needs to be ingrained in operators, regulators, but also at the level of government,” said Denis Flory, IAEA Deputy Director General and Head of Department of Nuclear Safety and Security in introducing the report.
