FOREWORD
One of the IAEA’s statutory objectives is to “seek to accelerate and enlarge the contribution of atomic energy to peace, health and prosperity throughout the world”. One way this objective is achieved is through the publication of a range of technical series. Two of these are the IAEA Nuclear Energy Series and the IAEA Safety Standards Series.
According to Article III.A.6 of the IAEA Statute, the safety standards establish “standards of safety for protection of health and minimization of danger to life and property.” The safety standards include the Safety Fundamentals, Safety Requirements and Safety Guides. These standards are written primarily in a regulatory style, and are binding on the IAEA for its own programmes. The principal users are the regulatory bodies in Member States and other national authorities.
The IAEA Nuclear Energy Series comprises reports designed to encourage and assist R&D on, and application of, nuclear energy for peaceful uses. This includes practical examples to be used by owners and operators of utilities in Member States, implementing organizations, academia, and government officials, among others. This information is presented in guides, reports on technology status and advances, and best practices for peaceful uses of nuclear energy based on inputs from international experts. The IAEA Nuclear Energy Series complements the IAEA Safety Standards Series.
As of December 2010, there were 441 nuclear power reactors in operation, with a total capacity of about 370 GW(e). After a slowdown in the construction of new nuclear power plants, there has been a marked increase in recent years in the number of Member States with operating nuclear power plants that are interested in building new plants. Currently, 65 units are under construction in 15 ‘expanding’ countries, the largest number since 1992.
In 2010, construction started on 15 new nuclear power reactors, the largest number since 1987, and projections of future nuclear power growth were once again revised upwards. Nuclear power plants are capital intensive, employ high technology, and feature complex systems and interfaces, not least because of the continuously evolving and increasing safety and quality requirements. Investment costs and their amortization make up the predominant part of future power generation costs and effectively determine the competitiveness of the nuclear power option with power from fossil fuels or hydroelectric stations. High interest rates have made nuclear power plants particularly vulnerable as a result of the steep cost escalation that results from unforeseen changes or delays.
Although additional licensing requirements, public intervention and funding problems have been blamed for most of the delays and cost increases, lack of proper project management has been a major factor. Project management is a special area, concerned primarily with the definition, coordination and control of large undertakings from the point of view of technical quality, schedule and costs.
Improved direction, control and expediting of nuclear power plant projects by competent project management would reduce costs not only through more efficient work sequences and higher productivity, but also through the reduction of accumulated financial obligations during construction.
This report, based on past proven practices in many Member States, provides advice and guidance on project management from the preparatory phase to plant turnover to commissioning for the construction of nuclear power plants. With this guidance, it is hoped that project managers and their staff will be able to better manage nuclear power projects and help maintain nuclear power as a viable energy option.
This report builds on and updates Technical Reports Series No. 279, Nuclear Project Management: A Guidebook. As such, this report supersedes the earlier publication. The IAEA received generous support from several Member States in providing experts and submitting written material for this report. Appreciation is expressed for their valuable contributions. The IAEA is particularly grateful to the members of the working group who provided the main text, recommendations and comments relating to the purpose, content and form of the book.
The IAEA officer responsible for this publication was K.S. Kang of the Division of Nuclear Power.
