Abstract

The European Commission has organized the Sustainable Nuclear Energy Technology Platform that through its Strategic Research Agenda promoted the development of fast reactors with closed fuel cycle. Among the promising reactor technologies, the Lead Fast Reactor (LFR) has been identified as a technology with great potential to meet needs for both remote sites and central power stations. The LEADER project deals with the development of such a technology through two main goals: the conceptual design of an industrial-size LFR (ELFR) and the conceptual design of a scaled down facility, the demonstration reactor called ALFRED. The European Commission, within its seventh framework programme, has approved the proposal submitted by 16 partners comprising research centres, industrial partners and universities. The project has started in April 2010 for a duration of three years. In this paper we present a synthesis of the main results of the LEADER project.
