“…Conversely, the number of completed NDPs is negligible, being only 16 NPPs and a limited number of other nuclear facilities fully decommissioned in the world (OECD/NEA 2016). Therefore, the information available to the management regarding past experiences is still limited and fragmented (see the assessment of dismantling steam generators in (Hornacek & Necas 2016)) NDP uncertainties can be even higher that the ones of nuclear new build.…”

Nuclear Decommissioning Projects and Programmes (NDPs) are jeopardized by several risks, long schedule and costs estimates that lay in the range of hundreds of billions of pounds. Moreover, in some countries, these estimates keep increasing and key stakeholders have a limited understanding of the determinants that engender this phenomena. Benchmarking refers to the process of comparing projects in order to identify best practices and generate ideas for improvement. However, even if it is the envisaged approach to tackle the decommissioning challenges and due to the NDPs uniqueness, until now, benchmarking has been only partially used. This paper proposes an innovative approach to benchmark decommissioning projects, both from the nuclear and nonnuclear industry, within the UK and worldwide. From this cross-sectorial and crosscountry analysis, it is possible to gather a list of key NDPs characteristic and statistically test their correlation with the project performance. The ultimate aim of the research underpinning this paper is to investigate the possible causation NDP characteristics and NDP performance and to develop guidelines to improve the selection, planning and delivery of future NDPs.
