Gda
This is the latest routine quarterly report on the progress of Generic Design Assessment (GDA) of the AP1000® and UK EPR™ reactors. It follows the issuing of interim design acceptance by ONR and the Environment Agency in December 2011.
Westinghouse Electric Company is delighted that the UK regulators – Office for Nuclear Regulation (ONR) and Environment Agency (EA) – have today granted Interim Design Acceptance Confirmation (IDAC) and Interim Statement of Design Acceptability (ISoDA) to the company’s AP1000® reactor design.
The Office for Nuclear Regulation has published the first quarter update for the GDA Generic Design Assessment.
This is the statement issued by EDF Energy concerning GDA Generic Design Assessment.
The Health and Safety Executive’s Nuclear Directorate (ND) and the Environment Agency continue to work together on the generic design assessment (GDA) of two new nuclear reactor designs that are likely to be developed in the UK – EDF and AREVA’s UK EPR and Westinghouse’s AP1000.

This seminar formed part of our consultations on the Generic Design Assessment (GDA) of two new nuclear reactor designs (AP1000 submitted by Westinghouse and UK EPR submitted by EDF and AREVA).
This builds on a discussion paper published in May 2009 and takes into account the feedback received from stakeholders. It sets out the outcomes that can be expected in June 2011, when we complete our assessment of the safety case of the designs.
