Review: This document was produced in response to a resolution at the IAEA’s conference calling on interested Member states to develop nuclear power reactors that reflect the needs of the developing states that choose the nuclear option. This was to be achieved in two stages – Stage 1 being to establish common user considerations. This book presents the results of Stage 1, giving the common considerations in developing countries up to the year 2050. The volume can be used to promote dialogue between potential users, to address near and longer-term institutional and infrastructural issues, and/or as a basis for discussions for domestic planning at different points in the introduction or expansion of a nuclear power programme. It covers: the characteristics of user countries; an analysis of the results of surveys from experts in up to 30 countries; the features desired by technology users; and gives final observations.
