Abstract

Public nuclear power plant safety research in Finland has been conducted under national research programmes since 1989. The mission of the research programme derives from the stipulations of the Finnish Nuclear Energy Act concerning ensuring the availability of expertise in nuclear safety. The ongoing four-year research programme SAFIR2014 has an annual volume of about 70 person-years, of which VTT's contribution is 50 person-years. In 2012 research was conducted in 42 pro jects, 35 of which were managed by VTT. VTT is also responsible for the administration of the programme.
