Report: Safety Implications of Problems in Olkiluoto

14 March 2007

This report assesses the safety implications of quality assurance problems in the construction of an EPR reactor in Olkiluoto. The affected components include piping, containment liner and concrete base slab.

The EPR is supposed to belong to a new generation of reactors with an enhanced safety level. The experience at the Olkiluoto 3 site indicates, however, that it is highly questionable whether even present-day safety standards will be kept at this plant.
