The Working Group "0ffshore Nuclear Power Plants" was established
by the Commission of the European Communities in 1971. At that time
it appeared that the option offered by creating new sites offshore
should be explored. The present development of nuclear power has
not, however, reached the stage where offs hore siting can be
considered as a near or medium term proposition. The purpose of
this report is to summarize the state of the art for the provision
of floating or fixed structures, or man-made islands of the size
needed for the construction of nuclear and other power stations. It
describes the main factors which must be taken into account in the
design and location of such islands and provides an indication of
feasibility and cost for each design at the present time. It deals
mainly with the civil engineering problems and not other major
factors, such as the law of the sea, the rights of countries to
locate nuclear establishments off their coast, their safety,
security, the energy connection with the mainland, the marine
ecology, the logistics, etc. ; many of these problems are directly
related to the site and have major economic and political
implications. By studying application examples the Working Group
has occupied itself with these other factors.
