EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

This study, in which 18 OECD countries and five international organisations have 
participated, has been undertaken jointly for the Nuclear Energy Agency's Committee 
for Technical and Economic Studies on Nuclear Energy Development and the Fuel 
Cycle and the Standing Group on Long-Term Co-operation of the International 
Energy Agency. It has been conducted in association with the International Union 
of Producers and Distributors of Electrical Energy and the International Atomic 
Energy Agency. The Commission of the European Community has assisted in the 
study and advice has been received from the Coal Industry Advisory Board of the 
International Energy Agency.

The study reviews the projected electricity generation costs for the base load 
power generation options expected to be available in the medium term, using an 
agreed common economic methodology. Cost projections were obtained for 
nuclear and fossil fuelled plants that could in principle be commissioned in the 
mid-1990s, or shortly thereafter, although not all countries plan to commission 
plants at that time.
