ARAO 02-08-030
• used to support licensing action, to provide the input for design optimization and WAC development
• includes operational and post-closure safety assessment
• sensitivity and uncertainty analyses were performed using both deterministic and probabilistic approaches
• proposed facility meets the regulatory safety criteria with a good margin in all the analyses conducted

Safety case
Slovenian LILW disposal facility – recent development of the project
ARAO 02-08-030
• Extended lifetime of NPP Krško,
• Preparation of the waste for disposal is done in NPP Krško,
• Disposal half of LILW from NPP Krško and all institutional LILW from Slovenia,
• Possibility to increase disposal capacity for the disposal of all LILW from NEK, modular concept,
• Construction of the repository in 2018-2020,
• Idle period of the repository from 2025,
• The repository resumes operation in 2050;

Slovenian LILW disposal facility – recent development of the project
ARAO 02-08-030
• Repository provides the fulfillment of international and
national legal requirements regarding treatment and disposal
of LILW,
• Repository improves the conditions for life extension for NPP
Krško and offers synergetic effects for the second unit of NPP
Krško,
• Repository provides a basis for safe, economic and reliable
use of radioactive sources in science, medicine and industry
in Slovenia,
• All economic calculations and comparisons show a clear
advantage in case of a joint Slovenian and Croatian solution;
