STUDY DESCRIPTION
The GIROSCOPE project (Guidance for Innovative Reactor Off-Site Consequences, Planned and Emergency) deals with emergency preparedness and response (EP&R) and Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) for novel nuclear reactors (NNRs). The project characterizes the source terms of three types of NNRs: High-Temperature Gas-cooled Reactor (HTGR), Compact Molten Salt Reactor (CMSR), and Small Light Water Reactor (SLWR). It evaluates NNR types and their potential locations, focusing on the future requirements these sites may impose, and investigates societal perceptions and related concerns. The project also evaluates the applicability and limitations of atmospheric transport models for radionuclide releases in both urban and remote or hard-to-reach areas. Supported by stakeholder engagement, the project provides a methodological framework for EPR and EIA for NNRs, a scenario database and recommendations that address the needs identified in IAEA and other international guidelines.
