Finnish Research Programme on Nuclear Waste Management (KYT) 2011-2014 The research programme is based on the Nuclear Energy Act (990/1987) according to which the aim of research is "ensuring that the authorities have such sufficient and comprehensive nuclear engineering expertise and other facilities at their disposal that are needed for comparisons of the various ways and methods of carrying out nuclear waste management”. Emphasis is on nationally central research topics. The long-term aim of KYT2014 is, for its part, to maintain national knowhow in nuclear waste management and to promote collaboration between authorities, nuclear industry, and scientists. NEW! The final report of the KYT2014 research programme published The Finnish Research Programme on Nuclear Waste Management, KYT2014, took place between 2011 and 2014. Key themes of the research programme include new and alternative technologies in nuclear waste management, safety research in nuclear waste management and social science studies related to nuclear waste management. Safety research in nuclear waste management comprises four sectors: safety case, buffer and backfill materials, canister, and other safety related studies. The 39 research projects underway during the research period have primarily been concerned with safety research in of nuclear waste management. The final report of the KYT2014 research programme presents the programme’s objectives, organisation and research projects. A list of publications and theses is presented as well.
