Si fa un gran parlare di Decommissioning, utilizzato sempre dai cosidetti "ambientalisti" contro l'eneria nucleare. Di questo termine, probabilmente, non ne conoscono neppure il significato; questa brochure del NEA é esplicativa sopratutto per i non adetti ai lavori:

Meno male che gli oscurantisti sarebbero sempre "quelli" del vaticano! Su ogm e nucleare hanno avuto un atteggiamento assai "progressista":

Cosa dice la UE a riguardo:

Molto interessante questo documento del WNA:

Testualmente: "In USA, utilities are collecting 0.1 to 0.2 cents/kWh to fund decommissioning. They must then report regularly to the NRC on the status of their decommissioning funds. About two thirds of the total estimated cost of decommissioning all US nuclear power reactors has already been collected, leaving a liability of about $9 billion to be covered over the remaining operating lives of 104 reactors (on basis of average $320 million per unit).
An OECD survey published in 2003 reported US dollar (2001) costs by reactor type. For western PWRs, most were $200-500/kWe, for VVERs costs were around $330/kWe, for BWRs $300-550/kWe, for CANDU $270-430/kWe. For gas-cooled reactors the costs were much higher due to the greater amount of radioactive materials involved, reaching $2600/kWe for some UK Magnox reactors."
