Steps of FR Development
Main points of the Decision - Japan will firmly maintain its nuclear fuel cycle policy and R&D of fast
reactor (FR)
- The Council on Fast Reactor Development will be established
- New strategy for FR development will be finalized by the end of 2016.
- Reviewing the role of FBR Monju that may lead to possible decommissioning will be finalized by the end of 2016.

Working-level, technical discussion toward the formulation of “Strategic Roadmap” (tentative) which identifies the future 10 years works for FR development
Strategic Working Group
Members METI (ANRE), MEXT, MHI, FEPC (utilities), JAEA
Latest event March 30th 1st meeting to determine members &
topics for review
(Industrial Cooperation) Manufacturing Cooperation in the third country projects Bechtel’s participation to Horizon project in UK Exelon – JAPC cooperation on plant operation
(Decommissioning) Fukushima-Daiichi Other NPPs (eg. Energy Solution – JAPC cooperation) Forums for further cooperation (G to G Cooperation) US-JP Bilateral Commission on Civil Nuclear Cooperation R&D cooperation under the Bilateral Committee (eg. accident tolerant fuel, seismic analysis, test data exchange…)
