Resumen
Recovery operation at Fukushima-Daiichi NPP is steadily on the Roadmap toward decommissioning. Significant amounts of improvements such as enhancing the reliability of core cooling systems, the commencement of fuel removal from spent fuel pools etc. have already been achieved over the last few years and those efforts are being boosted by the establishment of a new entity fully responsible for the decommissioning and decontamination works while many challenges such as much uncertainty in RPV/PCV, increasing water inventory, etc. still exist. Not only the recovery work, but also continuous examination on lessons learned from Fukushima is our first priority so that the knowledge obtained there should be integrated in safety enhancement measures of any NPPs around the world. Two technical reports for this matter have already been issued.
