Abstract

Nuclear power in Eastern Europe and the Former Soviet Union (FSU) is one of the mostly debated issues. There are many controversial opinions around this topic, but lack of data and unstable economic and political climate have prevented the situation from guaranteed improvements in the near future. The goal of this study is to look for a reasonable nuclear policy in the region based on numerical estimates of expected risks and economic assessments of possible options of phasing-out unsafe and obsolete nuclear reactors. A long-tern future of nuclear energy is analyzed for three main energy scenarios with a different impacts to the response to climate change. The study creates a good background for the negotiations on nuclear energy in Eastern Europe and the FSU between Western investors and local states.
