Book excerpt: The presentation contains the results of a literature review of concepts for augmenting the safety of light-water moderated nuclear power plants as alternatives to underground siting. Two types of alternatives were considered. The first type, consisting of alternatives to LWR power production technology such as the high temperature gas reactors (HTGRs), the liquid-metal fast-breeder reactors (LMFBRs), etc., has been previously discussed. The second type, consisting of alternatives within LWR power production technology such as radioactive fission product containment methods, is presented here. The review was restricted to evaluations of the effectiveness of each concept to achieve safety benefits, rather than the necessity for achieving the benefits. For this reason, it was implicitly acknowledged that underground siting was being studied to reduce the consequences of a hypothesized core melt accident. It is generally assumed that such accidents are very unlikely to happen. Nevertheless, a basic tenet of the review was that such an event was possible and underground siting alternatives might be found which were both effective and economically feasible.

Forty-five countries are planning to add nuclear power to their grids and more than 66 nuclear power plants are under construction. Nuclear power plants that generate electricity and steam need to improve safety to become more acceptable to governments and the public. One novel practical solution to increase nuclear power plants' safety factor is to build them away from urban areas, such as offshore or underground. To date, Land-Based siting is the dominant option for siting all commercial operational nuclear power plants. However, the literature reveals several options for building nuclear power plants in safer sitings than Land-Based sitings. The alternatives are several and each has advantages and disadvantages, and it is difficult to distinguish among them and choose the best for a specific project. In this research, we recall the old idea of using the alternatives of offshore and underground sitings for new nuclear power plants and propose a tool to help in choosing the best siting technology. This research involved the development of a decision model for evaluating several potential nuclear power plant siting technologies, both those that are currently available and future ones. The decision model was developed based on the Hierarchical Decision Modeling (HDM) methodology. The model considers five major dimensions, social, technical, economic, environmental, and political (STEEP), and their related criteria and sub-criteria. The model was designed and developed by the author, and its elements' validation and evaluation were done by a large number of experts in the field of nuclear energy. The decision model was applied in evaluating five potential siting technologies and ranked the Natural Island as the best in comparison to Land-Based, Floating Plant, Artificial Island, and Semi-Embedded plant.
