1.Introduction Radioactive waste is generated in all Member States of the European Union even though the quantities are very small in non-nuclear power Member States compared to those Member States operating nuclear power plants. Nuclear power plants are the main producers of spent fuel although small quantities of spent fuel are also generated during the operation of research, training and demonstration reactors. According to the Council Directive 2011/70/EURATOM establishing a Community framework for the responsible and safe management of spent fuel and radioactive waste (further “Directive”) Member States have to provide for appropriate national arrangements for a high level of safety of spent fuel and radioactive waste management, including the establishment, implementation and updating of national programmes for the management of such material. Member States have to communicate such national programmes and the national reports on the implementation of the Directive (including the national inventories in line with Article 12(1)c of the Directive) to the Commission in line with Article 13(1) and 14(1) of the Directive. This document gives an overview of spent fuel and radioactive waste inventory in the European Union and the future prospects, as required by Article 14(2)b of the Directive. It contains background information to the inventory data presented in the Report from the Commission to the Council and the European Parliament on progress of implementation of Council Directive 2011/70/EURATOM and an inventory of radioactive waste and spent fuel present in the Community's territory and future prospects (COM(2017)236). Previously the European Commission (further "Commission") published a series of "Situation Reports" which were developed in order to analyse and inform stakeholders about the situation of spent fuel and radioactive waste management in the European Union. Data from the 6th Situation Report and 7th Situation Report have been used here for comparison and identification of trends in the evolution of the European Union inventory. Information about the Member States' installations generating radioactive waste and spent fuel, policies, strategies, concepts, plans and financing mechanisms is summarised in the Staff Working Document COM(2017)159 on progress of implementation of Council Directive 2011/70/EURATOM and an inventory of radioactive waste and spent fuel present in the Community`s territory and future prospects. 2.Sources of information

The European Union spent fuel and radioactive waste inventory data presented in this document is based on the national programmes and national reports submitted by Member States to the Commission. Although the data from individual Member States have different reference dates ranging from end of 2013 to 2016, most of the Member States have chosen the end of 2013 as a reference date. The summaries presented in this document have been verified by the respective Member States, with one exception. For the trend analysis additional documents containing historical inventory data have been used. Most of the data for 2004, 2007 and 2010 inventories have been taken from the Sixth and Seventh Situation Reports, as well as unpublished inventory data reported to the Commission by the Member States in 2010. In order to perform trend analysis for the European Union inventory of spent fuel and radioactive waste, missing and inconsistent data from the above-mentioned sources were reviewed and updated by using various sources, such as national inventory reports published by competent authorities, and national Joint Convention reports. Any updates to data for 2004, 2007 and 2010 are identified in the tables in the Annex. The collected inventory data also appeared to be consistent with the IAEA inventory data. In preparation of this report, the following main sources of uncertainty have been identified: ·Member States report radioactive waste data using their national classification schemes. Therefore, conversion to a common reporting basis (IAEA GSG-1 classification; see Chapter 4 below) introduces uncertainties, as the radioactive waste classes in different national classification schemes often cannot be directly matched, and the transformation is carried out on a “best approximation” basis. ·Member States use different units (volume, mass, etc.). With some exceptions, volumes of radioactive waste are reported. Where this is not the case, conversion from mass to volume without detailed knowledge of radioactive waste treatment/conditioning methods used can result in significant uncertainty. This includes different ways to reporting disused sealed radioactive sources. Especially in countries with large nuclear programmes, the disused sealed radioactive sources are generally integrated into other large radioactive waste streams and are not reported separately. In other countries, especially where the disused sealed radioactive sources are a significant part of the national inventory, they are reported separately from the other radioactive waste and radioactive waste classes, and in general are reported as number of sources. ·Member States used different approaches to report volume of radioactive waste – some reported volumes as stored, while others reported volumes as ready for disposal. When inventory is reported “as disposed” volumes – it is used for integration of the national reporting into the overall European Union inventory, since this represents the final step in management of radioactive waste. Interpretation of volume "as stored" in some cases can lead to significant uncertainties, especially when estimating the need for disposal capacities. One example is the usually very large volume of liquid radioactive waste and sludge in storage. After treatment and conditioning for disposal this volume may be significantly reduced. The same is true for combustible and compactible radioactive waste. To achieve consistency and comparability of the data, it is preferable for Member States to report radioactive waste volumes as packaged for disposal. ·Limited knowledge of radioactive contamination of facilities subject to decommissioning results in uncertainties in predicting amounts of decommissioning waste. The detailed characterization of a facility subject to decommissioning increases the precision in forecasting the amount of radioactive waste, however, only when decommissioning is well progressed will the actual categories and amounts of waste be fully known. This is also valid for the limited knowledge of characteristics of some legacy wastes. ·Differences in materials considered as radioactive waste. Waste containing naturally occurring radioactive material – NORM (e.g. from uranium mining and milling) is not categorised as radioactive waste in some Member States, although a few Member States declare this waste in the scope of their national programmes. ·Pending decisions result in uncertainties in the projection of future radioactive waste inventories (e.g. volumes, classes). Examples of pending decisions are: oFinal decisions about the management routes for radioactive waste (such as evaporation versus cementation); oImmediate or deferred decommissioning, with the amount of radioactive waste potentially decreasing with prolonged safe enclosure of a facility; oFinal disposal end-points, potentially with considerable differences in acceptance criteria. ·Political decisions and changes in the legal/regulatory framework may also introduce considerable changes in estimates of future arisings, e.g.: oDecisions to retrieve disposed radioactive waste;

oChanges to the fuel cycle; oInclusion or not of certain materials – e.g. spent fuel being categorised as waste, or other materials such as depleted uranium. During the assessment of the evolution of Member States inventories with time, the following additional sources of uncertainties have been identified: ·Use of different radioactive waste classification schemes from one reporting period to another. ·Differences in the reference dates of Member States inventories – for the current reporting period although the majority of Member States reported inventories as of the end of 2013, a few have chosen to report more recent inventories with dates ranging from 2014 to 2016. ·Change in radioactive waste status - some Member States plan to recover previously disposed radioactive waste, process and re-dispose of it in existing and/or newly constructed disposal facilities. So there might be changes depending on whether radioactive waste is still reported as disposed of or stored. Also the overall volume might change as a result of subsequent retreatment and final disposal. Overall after a decision for remediation of a disposal site, radioactive waste is considered as stored whilst awaiting retrieval. ·Change of assumptions used for reporting during different reporting periods. For example, some Member States reported combined radioactive waste classes like "Low and Intermediate Level Waste" as "Low Level Waste" while in a subsequent period this was reported as "Intermediate Level Waste". This however has no effect on the need for safe management of this waste. ·Declaration of material as radioactive waste or not, changing from one reporting period to the other (e.g. spent fuel and depleted uranium). It has also been noted that some Member States report “irradiated fuel” and others “spent fuel”. 3.Sources of spent fuel and radioactive waste The largest source of radioactive waste stems from the nuclear power plants and associated nuclear fuel cycle activities. The latter include those from the nuclear fuel cycle, i.e. from conversion of uranium through to fuel fabrication prior to electricity generation, and subsequent reprocessing of spent fuel. Other Member States make use of the once-through fuel cycle option, with direct disposal of the spent fuel in deep geological facilities foreseen. Decommissioning of nuclear power plants and other nuclear facilities at the end of their useful lifetime also results in generation of significant volumes of radioactive waste, mainly low-level waste. Another large contribution can be waste from mining and milling of uranium, if it is declared as radioactive waste. Some Member States report such material as a part of radioactive waste inventory, whereas others do not. Therefore, a comparison of inventories of waste containing naturally occurring radioactive material between Member States or compilation of an overall European Union inventory (incl. NORM waste) is currently not possible and therefore outside the scope of this report. Smaller volumes of radioactive waste are generated as a result of non-power uses of radioactive materials, such as the manufacturing of radioactive materials for use in medical and industrial applications, or research facilities such as laboratories, and research reactors. Therefore, all Member States generate radioactive waste, though non-power related wastes represent a small proportion of the total generated radioactive waste. 4.Classification of spent fuel and radioactive waste In line with Article 12(1)c of the Directive, Member States need to develop as part of their national programmes and notify to the Commission spent fuel and radioactive waste inventories in accordance with an appropriate classification. Correspondingly, Member States notify their national programmes and reports on their spent fuel and radioactive waste inventories based on radioactive waste classifications that may differ from one Member State to another. In order to make spent fuel and radioactive waste inventories comparable among different Member States and in order to aggregate the overall inventory on the territory of the European Union, Member States inventories were translated into a common classification scheme. The IAEA GSG-1 classification system has been chosen for that purpose in order to facilitate Member States reporting to various international organisations (e.g. IAEA) and instruments (e.g. Joint Convention). The categories of radioactive waste used for data aggregation are: ·Very Low Level Waste (VLLW): waste that does not need a high level of containment and isolation and, therefore, is suitable for disposal in near surface landfill type facilities with limited regulatory control. ·Low Level Waste (LLW): waste that is above clearance levels, but with limited amounts of long-lived radionuclides. Such waste requires robust isolation and containment for periods of up to a few hundred years and is suitable for disposal in engineered near surface facilities. This class covers a very broad range of waste. LLW may include short-lived radionuclides at higher levels of activity concentration, and also long-lived radionuclides, but only at relatively low levels of activity concentration. ·Intermediate Level Waste (ILW): waste that, because of its content, particularly of long lived radionuclides, requires a greater degree of containment and isolation than that provided by near surface disposal. However, ILW needs no provision, or only limited provision, for heat dissipation during its storage and disposal. ILW may contain long-lived radionuclides, in particular, alpha emitting radionuclides that will not decay to a level of activity concentration acceptable for near surface disposal during the time for which institutional controls can be relied upon. Therefore, waste in this class requires disposal at greater depths, of the order of tens of metres to a few hundred metres. ·High Level Waste (HLW): waste with levels of activity concentration high enough to generate significant quantities of heat by the radioactive decay process or waste with large amounts of long lived radionuclides that need to be considered in the design of a disposal facility for such waste. Disposal in deep, stable geological formations usually several hundred metres or more below the surface is the generally recognized option for disposal of HLW. Spent fuel (SF) is also considered in its entirety, whether it might be intended for reprocessing or awaiting decision for future long term management (reprocessing or disposal).





In addition to the above mentioned waste classes, IAEA GSG-1 classification system defines: ·Exempt waste with concentrations of radionuclides small enough to not require provisions for radiation protection. Such material can be cleared from regulatory control and does not require any further consideration from a regulatory control perspective. ·Very short lived waste containing only very short half-life radionuclides, thus such a waste can be stored until the activity has fallen beneath the levels of clearance, allowing for the cleared waste to be managed as conventional waste. The latter two waste classes do not require future long term management or disposal as radioactive waste due to their short-lifetime and/or levels allowing the exemption or clearance from regulatory control. Accordingly, exempt waste and very short lived waste are in most cases not reported by Member States. Thus, these waste classes have not been used for data aggregation in the present document. Several Member States combine VLLW and LLW, or do not have a separate VLLW class. In the latter case such material could be subject to clearance in accordance with the respective national legislation. Reflecting the disposal routes, several Member States also use a combined waste class “low and intermediate level waste” - LILW. Where other than the IAEA GSG-1 classification system is used for reporting by Member States, a conversion provided by the Member States is applied in this Report in order to achieve the transformation from the national to the IAEA classification systems. 5.Estimated spent fuel and radioactive waste inventory in the European Union The present inventory covers all European Union Member States. The data was analysed with respect to Member States currently or previously having operated nuclear power plants and those not, i.e. those with relatively much smaller radioactive waste inventories. When comparing the current data with the data provided for previous reporting (i.e. Situation Reports) the data are generally consistent. In some cases, however, there are some deviations due to reasons such as the use of the older classification scheme, affecting in particular the ratio between LILW and VLLW; successful programmes of volume reduction; the decommissioning of nuclear installations; and shipments of radioactive waste/spent fuel for reprocessing. Radioactive waste At the end of 2013 the estimated total inventory of radioactive waste in the European Union was 3 313 000 m3, with 70 % disposed of (2 316 000 m3), and 30 % stored (997 000 m3). Table 1 summarizes the overall amounts of radioactive waste in the European Union.

Distribution of the radioactive waste in the European Union between stored and disposed of by waste class, end of 2013 Distribution of the European Union radioactive waste inventory according to different radioactive waste classes is shown in Figures 1 and 2. LLW is the dominating waste class making around 74% of the overall waste, while VLLW and ILW is estimated to be 15% and 10% respectively. HLW makes the smallest fraction of the overall waste volume, accounting for 0.2%. Figure 2. Distribution of the radioactive waste in the European Union, end of 2013 There are sixteen European Union Member States that operate or have operated nuclear power plants. They account for 99.7% of the radioactive waste inventory in the European Union. The total volume of radioactive waste in those Member States and the distribution among them is shown in Figures 3 and 4.

Figure 3. Volumes of radioactive waste in Member States with nuclear power programme, end of 2013 Figure 4. Distribution of total volumes of radioactive waste in Member States with nuclear power programme, end of 2013 Twelve Member States have no nuclear programme, although six of them are operating or have operated research, training or demonstration reactors. The total volume of radioactive waste and the distribution among the Member States without nuclear power programmes is shown in Figures 5 and 6. Figure 5. Total volume of radioactive waste in Member States without nuclear power programme, end of 2013 Figure 6. Distribution of total volumes of radioactive waste in Member States without nuclear power programme, end of 2013 The total estimated volume of stored radioactive waste is 997 000 m3. LLW makes almost half of this amount (43%), while VLLW together with ILW make 24% and 33% correspondingly. HLW fraction in the overall radioactive waste in storage is 0.6%. Distribution of stored radioactive waste is shown in Figure 7. Figure 7. Distribution of stored radioactive waste in the European Union by class, end of 2013 Member States having nuclear power programmes are large contributors to the overall radioactive waste inventory of the European Union. The spent fuel and radioactive waste amounts are in line with the size of the nuclear programme. Amounts of stored radioactive waste in Member States with nuclear power programmes are shown in Figure 8. Figure 8. Volumes of stored radioactive waste by class in Member States with nuclear power programme, end of 2013 Other countries having a small nuclear programme (i.e. only research reactors) or no nuclear programme at all have very little contribution to the overall European Union radioactive waste in storage (see Figure 9). The amounts of stored radioactive waste in those Member States are shown in Figure 10. Figure 9. Volumes of stored radioactive waste by class in Member States with and without nuclear power programme, end of 2013 Figure 10. Volumes of stored radioactive waste by class in Member States without nuclear power programme, end of 2013 Currently, twelve Member States have radioactive waste disposal facilities either in operation or closed (nuclear power programme countries: Czech Republic, Finland, France, Germany, Hungary, Romania, Slovakia, Spain, Sweden, UK; non-nuclear programme countries: Latvia and Poland) although based on the information from the national programmes and reports it is expected that more repositories will be built in coming years. The total quantity of the disposed radioactive waste as of end 2013 equals 2 316 000 m3. This consists almost entirely of LLW (87%).

A number of Member States (both with and without nuclear power plants) have dedicated disposal sites for institutional radioactive waste. In some cases, the disposal of waste undertaken in the past at several sites is now being reconsidered and there are plans for the retrieval of the waste disposed of several decades ago. As a result change of radioactive waste inventories can be expected after retrieval for processing and subsequent storage and/or disposal. Distribution of the disposed of radioactive waste in Member States as of end of 2013 is shown in Figure 11. Figure 11. Volumes of radioactive waste disposed of in the European Union, end of 2013 Evolution of the total radioactive waste volumes (per waste category) is given in Table 2. In all radioactive waste categories an overall increase over time is noted. However, the radioactive waste volumes decreased between two reporting dates (2004-2007). This decrease can be due to different activities resulting in reduction of volumes, like compaction of the solid waste or treatment of large quantities of liquid waste. Table 2. Evolution of radioactive waste inventory since the end of 2004 Waste Category Total amount (m3) 2004 2007 2010 2013 VLLW 210 000 280 000 414 000 516 000 LLW 2 228 000 2 435 000 2 356 000 2 453 000 ILW 206 000 288 000 321 000 338 000 HLW 5 000 4 000 5 000 6 000 The evolution of total radioactive waste volumes for the period 2004-2013 is illustrated in Figure 12. Figure 12. Evolution of total radioactive waste volumes since the end of 2004 (with the fraction of waste disposed of indicated) Evolution of the stored radioactive waste volumes (per waste category) is presented in Table 3. There are currently no operational deep geological disposal facilities for ILW and HLW. Consequently, the amounts of stored ILW and HLW are steadily increasing over time. The amounts of VLLW and LLW in storage are affected by differences in generation and disposal rates. During different time periods, their respective amounts in storage may therefore increase or decrease. Table 3. Evolution of stored radioactive waste in the 2004-2013 period Waste Category Amount in Storage (m3) 2004 2007 2010 2013 VLLW 176 000 175 000 217 000 237 000 LLW 411 000 495 000 365 000 428 000 ILW 206 000 288 000 321 000 326 000 HLW 6 000 4 000 5 000 6 000 Table 4 shows the evolution of radioactive waste disposal over time. The increase in disposed of LLW is levelling over the time period since 2004. Contrary to this, the disposal of VLLW shows a steady increase. Table 4. Evolution of radioactive waste disposals in the 2004-2013 period Waste Category Amount in Disposal (m3) 2004 2007 2010 2013 VLLW 34 000 105 000 197 000 279 000 LLW 1 817 000 1 940 000 1 991 000 2 025 000 ILW 0 0 0 12 000 HLW 0 0 0 0 From Table 4 it can be also seen that some Member States have declared disposals of ILW. These disposals, in accordance with the IAEA classification, consist mainly of highly active disused radioactive sealed sources containing short-lived radionuclides. Figure 13. Normalised evolution of stored radioactive waste amounts in European Union since the end of 2004

Figure 14. Normalised evolution of disposed of radioactive waste in European Union since the end of 2004 The overall evolution of radioactive waste generated in the European Union (normalized sum of radioactive waste both stored and disposed) until the end of 2013 is shown in Figure 15. The amounts of the individual waste classes are increasing (LLW to a lesser extent) with different rate. One exception is HLW where data reported in 2004 are significantly higher than in the following reporting periods. Figure 15. Normalized evolution of radioactive waste volumes (both stored and disposed) From the information presented above the following trends concerning the inventory of radioactive waste and spent fuel in the European Union can be observed: Radioactive waste At the end of 2013, 54 % of the total VLLW volume is reported as disposed of and the amount of VLLW disposed has steadily increased. The volume of stored VLLW shows a steady increase of about 20 % over the time period 2004 – 2013. This shows that the disposal rate of VLLW needs to increase further to keep pace with its generation. At the same time 83 % of LLW is reported as disposed. With 17 % of the LLW amount generated still in storage, and no reported systematic increase in the amounts in storage between 2004 and 2013, the overall LLW amounts of waste generated and disposed is generally in equilibrium. This, however, is dominated by those countries with large LLW inventories, whereas a number of Member States with smaller inventories do not yet dispose of their LLW. For ILW the situation is very different. Less than 4 % is reported as disposed, and in some cases such ILW will be retrieved as current disposal facilities do not meet present safety requirements. Consequently, there is a steady increase in ILW in storage. For HLW and spent fuel declared as waste, the first facility for disposal of such material is expected around 2022 in Finland, with further facilities in France (around 2025) and Sweden (around 2030). Therefore, one should expect that the amounts of HLW and spent fuel in storage are increasing steadily in line with their generation. The reported data show a different situation in the period from 2004 to 2007. The reason is related to very high HLW volumes reported by Germany and Belgium for 2004. These volumes are 1450 m3 higher for Germany in 2004 than in the subsequent reporting. For Belgium the corresponding volume is 350 m3. The other Member States show more consistent data with respect to the expected constant or increasing amount of HLW. Based on the Member State strategy, spent fuel is stored pending either disposal or reprocessing. During reprocessing, uranium and plutonium are recovered, with generation of radioactive waste (mainly HLW and ILW), which is currently stored until disposal facilities become available. Spent Fuel At the end of 2013 more than 54 000 tHM of spent fuel was stored in the European Union (20% increase since 2007) and around 800 tHM of spent fuel (about 1.5 %) was sent for reprocessing outside the European Union with the expected returns of resulting radioactive waste from reprocessing. These amounts include both spent fuel coming from power and non-power (e.g. research, isotope production) reactors. It is foreseen to return around 1100 m3 of radioactive waste from spent fuel reprocesing outside the European Union by 2030. Table 5. Spent fuel in storage on Member States’ territory in the European Union for 2004-2013 period Spent Fuel in storage, tHM 2004 2007 2010 2013 38 100 44 900 53 300 54 300 Most recent reported amounts of spent fuel stored in individual Member States are shown in Figure 16. Some Member States have smaller inventories of spent fuel (or none) in storage than that generated by the nuclear power plants, as part of it or all of it has been reprocessed. On the other end, countries with neither past, nor current reprocessing have comparably high spent fuel inventories. Given that today there is no disposal route available for spent fuel (first disposal facilities to become operational in 2022-2030) and that not all Member States have their spent fuel reprocessed, there is a continual increase in the amount of spent fuel in storage (Figure 16). Figure 16. Spent fuel in storage, end of 2013

Evolution of spent fuel in storage in Member States since the end of 2004 6.Projections of future spent fuel and radioactive waste arisings In order to establish future trends Member States were asked to report future estimates of volumes of radioactive waste. Two different reporting approaches were used by the Member States for estimating future radioactive waste arisings: -One approach was to provide the data along with the reference waste classes for the end of the useful life of existing facilities and sites, including decommissioning and site remediation. -The other approach was to provide the amounts of radioactive waste for the different reference waste classes for specified future dates, namely 2020, 2030 and in some cases also 2040. The ends-of-operation of planned facilities are not certain, and correspondingly the estimates in this report include mainly existing facilities and sites. In the majority of the Member States that consider new facilities (e.g. nuclear power plant) detailed data has not been provided. An example of the first reporting approach could be the United Kingdom. It provides data adjusted to the IAEA reference waste categories for the end of the useful life of the respective sites and facilities presently in operation, including waste from decommissioning and site remediation. A few Member States provide the same data and also future waste arisings data for specified years. Most Member States however do not provide data for the end of the useful life, but only for specified future years. Consequently, it is not possible to project the future overall arisings as the data reported is not consistent. All Member States reported data are available in the tables in the Annex. With regards to spent fuel, an increase from present 54 000 tHM in storage to 64 000 tHM in 2030 is estimated noting, however, that the majority of the new build inventories has not been reported.
