Decommissioning Planning
Nuclear decommissioning project cost vary from hundreds of millions to a billion euros. Decommissioning planning plays a key role in establishing the cost level. Our approach to decommissioning planning considers nuclear waste disposal and treatment solutions as early during operation as possible.
