ITER hot cell team travels to Korea

So far, the procurement allocation does not foresee a Korean contribution to the ITER Hot Cell Facility. This building, needed for maintenance and radwaste operations of the ITER machine, will be financed 100 percent by the European Domestic Agency as defined in the procurement sharing plan. But things are about to change. The ITER Organization is currently undergoing a major value engineering process with the goal of reducing the overall project cost. So closer cooperation between the ITER Organization and the Domestic Agencies is desirable and necessary in many areas.

To start with, a delegation from ITER visited the Korean Atomic Energy Research Institute (KAERI) in Daejeon. As the Korean KAERI has years of experience to offer in the field of hot cell operation, ITER and Korea are currently discussing possible means on how to benefit from Korea's expertise on nuclear hot cells to help the ITER Organization optimize the design and thus reduce the cost of the ITER Hot Cell Facility.
