ENV9: Ratio of solid radioactive waste to units of energy produced
Brief Definition
Radioactive waste arisings from nuclear fuel cycles
or other fuel cycles per unit of energy produced.
Waste arisings destined for disposal in solid form
are classified and categorized according to national
definitions or as proposed here. These quantities
consider all radioactive wastes from energy fuel
cycles, including mining, milling, energy
generation and other related processes. This
indicator represents a set of indicators that includes
one for each type of radioactive waste
Units
Cubic metres (m
3
) of radioactive waste destined for
disposal in solid form and tonnes of heavy metal
(tHM) for spent fuel per terawatt hour (TWh) of
electricity produced or tonne of oil equivalent (toe)
or exajoule (EJ) of final energy produced in a
selected period of time (e.g. several years or
lifetime of facility)
