NEA Working Group on the Safety of Advanced Reactors (WGSAR) meeting, 9‑11 October 2019.

The NEA Working Group on the Safety of Advanced Reactors (WGSAR) held a meeting on 9‑11 October 2019 to make progress on a technical report on fuel qualification for advanced reactors. Participants also discussed the status of another technical report on regulatory approaches related to the use of analytical codes and methods in safety assessment of advanced reactors. The meeting was joined by the Generation IV International Forum (GIF) to improve GIF/WGSAR interactions for the identification of critical issues related to safety‑relevant phenomena and regulatory aspects for the different Gen IV concepts.
