The European Nuclear Safety Regulators Group (Ensreg) has published a report on fire protection at nuclear installations – a significant milestone that marks the successful completion of a comprehensive review mandated following the 2011 Fukushima nuclear accident in Japan.

The report is the result of a peer review, supported by the European Commission. It was the second review to be conducted under the provisions of the Euratom Nuclear Safety Directive, which establishes a framework for the safety of nuclear installations in the EU.
