Argentine Activities on Fuels for Nuclear Generation Stations

Abstract

In the last six years, significant changes have taken place in the nuclear activity field in Argentina, therefore all the areas of the nuclear fuel cycle have been strongly influenced by these.The strategies carried out by CNEA to give an initial answer to the modifications of the domestic and international context of the nuclear fuel cycle were described in the previous Conference. Three years later, it is possible to appreciate the first results of the application of those strategies, and also that the frame has continued not only evolving and requiring new answers, but adapting and accentuating some strategies as well. A brief review of those results is presented here, together with a summary of the condition of the current situation and of the proposals to face it.
