Fire Protection in Nuclear Installations

Fire protection in nuclear installations is being reviewed as part of the Topical Peer Review 2023 of the European Nuclear Safety Regulators Group (ENSREG).

  • In a first step, all participating countries evaluate the fire protection measures in their nuclear installations and summarise the results in a National Report.
  • In a second step, fire protection experts from the participating countries assess the National Reports and derive recommendations from them.
  • In a third step, these recommendations are incorporated into national action plans.
