Future trends
Sustainable nuclear energy system
• To build up an autonomous decision-making capability • To develop the necessary scientific technological infrastructure required for the optimum social utilization of nuclear energy
• Incremental acquisition of capabilities, in order to achieve technological autonomy, by means of a series of projects of increasing complexity
• Self-sufficiency in the fuel cycle • Maximum participation of local industry • Technology Transfer
Local participation in NPP deployment
•Atucha I: 40% local particiption. •Embalse: 51% local participation. •Atucha II: more than 200 local companies involved. •CAREM 25: the goal is to incorporate 70% of components produced by domestic firms, for which they are also working to qualify under the international quality standards.
As regards the final disposal of high level radioactive waste, during the eighties, CNEA began a feasibility study and engineering draft for the construction of a deep geological repository. Stable granite formations were looked for in low seismic regions with scarce hydraulic conductivity. One of the possible options was the town of Gastre, province of Chubut, and studies to characterise the place were performed. The report with the obtained results was duly handed in to the National Congress. Subsequently, as a consequence of the public opinion, studies were suspended in that locality, and thus it was not possible to prospect other favourable regions in the rest of the country.

International Cooperation and Initiatives
- Argentina received students and professionals, mainly from Latin American countries, Africa and Asia, especially by agreement of scholarships awarded by the IAEA, for training in a large number of areas. - The NPP´s operator has a special collaboration agreement with the Brazilian company Eletronuclear, sharing Brazilian and Argentine labor during the stops at the nuclear stations in Brazil and Argentina, as well as other issues of interest for both countries - The NRA has a close and varied interaction with national and foreign, governmental and non governmental, organizations, as well as with international organizations to promote the exchange of experiences and information and the participation in the development of the international recommendations.
