dc.description.abstract | Despite splendid success in its development, the future of nuclear power in the Republic of Korea (the ROK) faces a number of challenges. The majority of the public believe nuclear energy is not safe, resulting in low public acceptance. No long-term solution has been found for the management and disposal of spent nuclear fuel (SNF). Developing new sites for construction of nuclear power plants has become very difficult. Govern-ment policy for future development remains uncertain. The ROK is now the $5^{th}$ largest user of nuclear energy and also an exporter of nuclear reactors. Given the strategic importance of nuclear power in the country’s energy security planning, policy makers need to develop a long-term plan for the country’s fuel cycle systems, taking into account factors such as domestic politics, nonproliferation, international relations, and economics. In rela-tion to this consideration, this study was an economic evaluation of future nuclear fuel cycle options based on once-through, a closed fuel cycle with pyroprocessing, and use of a sodium-cooled fast reactor. Various factors in the future development of the ROK are also considered in the study, including nuclear phase-out, continuous use of nuclear energy at varying growth rates, timing of deployment of nuclear facilities, license renewal of reac-tors, SNF reprocessing options, and unification of the Korean peninsula. A spreadsheet model was developed as part of the methodology of screening material flows and economic evaluation, and results are discussed for poli-cy planning for the ROK, as well as for other countries developing nuclear power. | - |
