「Regarding the removal of nuclear fuel debris, the company is examining, primarily from the perspective of excavation technology, the “encapsulation and solidification method” proposed by the Nuclear Damage Compensation and Decommissioning Facilitation Corporation, in which a filler is poured into a reactor or other facility to solidify and remove the nuclear fuel debris together with it. The company has also joined a fusion energy market research association and will consider research and development into next-generation innovative reactors, including fusion reactors, as well as business development toward their implementation in society.」
In the decommissioning field, the company is expanding the scope of its consideration beyond conventional joint proposals and system development to include the encapsulation and solidification method for removing fuel debris and next-generation innovative reactors, including fusion reactors. - FY2023AdvancedAnnual report
「To support decommissioning operations, the company is acquiring internal DX capabilities and the latest external technology information and developing systems, with the aim of building an integrated management system tool covering decommissioning plans and waste management optimization. Specifically, it is developing a plant decommissioning system that uses laser scanning to create 3D models of facilities and visually plan dismantling and calculate the volume of dismantled materials.」
In addition to joint proposals with GNS and Jacobs, the company is expanding its initiatives to develop an integrated management system for decommissioning plans and waste management, as well as a 3D plant decommissioning system using laser scanning. - FY2021AdvancedAnnual report
「In the nuclear field, the company continues to strengthen its cooperative relationship with GNS, which has technology for storing spent fuel and waste and a track record of operating such facilities in Germany, a country advanced in decommissioning. It has also newly advanced a cooperative relationship with Jacobs in the United Kingdom, which likewise has a track record in decommissioning, and continues initiatives including joint proposals mainly concerning project management and engineering services in Japan's decommissioning field.」
In addition to continuing to strengthen its cooperation with GNS, the company has newly advanced its cooperative relationship with Jacobs in the United Kingdom, expanding its framework for joint proposals in Japan's decommissioning field. - FY2019AdvancedAnnual report
「In the nuclear field, the company is advancing a cooperative relationship with Germany's GNS (Gesellschaft für Nuklear-Service mbH), which has technology for storing spent fuel and waste and a track record of operating such facilities in Germany, a country advanced in decommissioning, and is promoting initiatives including joint proposals in Japan's decommissioning field.」
The cooperative relationship with GNS has developed into joint proposals in Japan's decommissioning field. - FY2017First statedAnnual report
「In the nuclear field, the company has established a cooperative relationship with Gesellschaft für Nuklear-Service mbH (GNS), a German company with technology for storing spent fuel and waste and a track record of operating such facilities in Germany, a country advanced in decommissioning, and will work on decommissioning and other areas that will progress in Japan.」
The company has established a cooperative relationship with Germany's GNS and aims to expand into the decommissioning field and other areas progressing in Japan.
