Collaborative Reviews and Effective LeveragingIAEA TECDOC Series No. 2098 This TECDOC was developed by the Nuclear Harmonization and Standardization Initiative Regulatory Track and offers comprehensive approaches for the cooperation of regulatory bodies in the review of advanced reactors and particularly small modular reactors. This report focuses on how regulatory bodies can effectively utilize other regulatory bodies' reviews and how they can work together while independently reviewing a design against national requirements. This document is informed by valuable insights from previous and ongoing multinational regulatory review activities and other international efforts on harmonization. It is an invaluable resource for regulatory bodies, technical support organizations and industry organizations involved in the pre-licensing and licensing of advanced reactors. |

Advances in Fabrication Technologies for Power Reactor FuelsIAEA TECDOC Series No. 2097 Over the next decade, further advancements in nuclear fuel fabrication technology are necessary to support the near-term deployment of advanced fuels for both large nuclear power plants and small modular reactors, including GEN III/III+ and GEN IV reactors. This publication offers a comprehensive overview of the current state of technological progress in fuel fabrication across various stages, including powder processing and reconversion, sintering, pelletizing, cladding, and the production of fuel rods and assembly components. It aims to serve as a valuable resource for ongoing activities and to support preparations for the deployment of new fabrication technologies. |
Evaluation of Physical Protection Systems at Nuclear FacilitiesIAEA Nuclear Security Series No. 49-T The physical protection system (PPS) at a nuclear facility consists of a range of nuclear security measures involving personnel, procedures and equipment. Ensuring that the PPS is operating as designed is crucial for the security of the nuclear material and of the facility itself. An evaluation of the individual elements of a facility’s PPS, as well as the system as a whole, provides a measure of the system’s effectiveness. This publication provides technical guidance for Member States, competent authorities and operators on evaluating the effectiveness of such systems to protect nuclear material in use and in storage against unauthorized removal, and to protect nuclear material and facilities against sabotage. |
Outlook for Nuclear Energy in AfricaAfrica faces rising energy demands and energy security and climate challenges. The IAEA’s new publication, developed for South Africa’s 2025 G20 Presidency, highlights nuclear energy as a transformative solution. With only one operational nuclear power plant on the continent and over 500 million people lacking electricity, nuclear power offers a clean, reliable and scalable path to energy security and sustainable development. The publication explores the growing interest in nuclear energy across more than 20 African countries, the role of small modular reactors, and the continent’s strategic uranium resources. It emphasizes the importance of nuclear infrastructure development, financing, regional cooperation and IAEA support to Member States. Case studies from Egypt, Ghana, Kenya and Nigeria showcase progress and potential in the development of nuclear energy on the continent. With innovative financing and international collaboration, nuclear energy can help to power Africa’s future and ambitions.
