CSNI Technical Opinion Papers
Agence pour l'Energie Nucléaire
Nuclear Energy Agency (NEA) Technical opinion papers (TOPs) are the summary consensus of experts for a particular topic in the field of nuclear safety. They are the result of work carried out under the aegis of the Committee on the Safety of Nuclear Installations (CSNI). The first TOP was released in 2002. Topics addressed in TOPs have included: Fire Probabilistic Safety Assessment (PSA); Recurring Events; Human Reliability Analysis in PSA for Nuclear Power Plants; Managing and Regulating Organisational Change in Nuclear Installations; Living PSA and its Use in the Nuclear Safety Decision-making Process; Development and Use of Risk Monitors at Nuclear Power Plants; Level-2 PSA for Nuclear Power Plants; The Role of Human and Organisational Factors in Nuclear Power Plant Modifications; Better Nuclear Plant Maintenance: Improving Human and Organisational Performance; Research on Human Factors in New Nuclear Plant Technology; Loss-of-Coolant Accidents Criteria Basis and Test Methodology; Nuclear Licensee Organisational Structures, Resources and Competencies: Determining their Suitability; Ageing Management of Nuclear Fuel Cycle Facilities; and Defence in Depth of Electrical Systems.

PSA-based Event Analysis
Agence pour l'Energie Nucléaire
This technical opinion paper provides the reader with a concise description of both the benefits and disadvantages of using probabilistic safety assessment (PSA) to analyse operational events in nuclear power plants in order to facilitate better operator feedback. The paper's objective is to present decision makers in the nuclear field with a clear technical opinion on how PSA techniques can be used to address this issue. The intended audience is primarily nuclear safety regulators, senior researchers and industry leaders. Government authorities, nuclear power plant operators and the general public may also be interested.
