Description
45 years since it was first conceived and after reprocessing over 9300 tonnes of fuel, THORP sheared its last fuel assembly on 9th November 2018. Providing a vital service to UK, European and international reactor operations, the facility will continue to store fuel for at least the next 50 years. This presentation will look back at some of the history, the economics and lessons learnt more than 24 years of successful operation and forward to a new future for the staff and facility.
