Toward the further Nuclear Safety

Nuclear power is an excellent energy source in terms of securing a stable supply and preventing global warming, and it is important to establish the nuclear fuel cycle and promote nuclear power generation as a core source of power.
However, the environment surrounding nuclear power is changing greatly, with the advancement of electricity deregulation, the introduction of new safety regulations for nuclear power, and the undermining of public trust due to repeated issues and scandals in recent years.
In order to fully display the characteristics of nuclear power under such circumstances, it is indispensable for utilities and organizations related to nuclear power to fulfill their individual roles, and furthermore, the entire Japanese nuclear power industry must make a full-scale effort to further enhance utilities' safety activities, make serious efforts to ensure safe and stable plant operation, gain public confidence, and revitalize the nuclear power industry.
The "Japan Nuclear Technology Institute" was thus established by consensus of the nuclear power industry as a new organization to support and lead the nuclear power industry.

The Japan Nuclear Technology Institute

The Japan Nuclear Technology Institute (JANTI) develops technical expertise and supports utilities in promoting safety activities, and aims to further enhance the safety of nuclear power. This contributes to the revitalization of the nuclear power industry, which is the common interest of its members.
JANTI was thus established as an organization that combines the collective effort of the nuclear power industry by consolidating and restructuring the functions of the Central Research Institute of Electric Power Industry Nuclear Information Center, and the Nuclear Safety Network (NS Net), assuming operations, and providing functions such as developing consensus standards.
JANTI is also independent from nuclear operators and exercises a supervisory role from an objective, third-party standpoint.
Furthermore, with regards to the activities of the Institution, the transparency of management is enhanced through information disclosure and the review by of a board of councilors comprising external members.

The principles of the Japan Nuclear Technology Institute

Missions

JANTI has established the following two missions in order to contribute to the revitalization of the nuclear power industry
Pursuit of a high level of safety.
Pursuit of the world's highest level of operating performance.
 

Action Principles

As JANTI follows through with its missions, it will develop its activities with the following six items as its action principles
JANTI shall comply with laws and regulations as a member of society, and act according to the ethics of engineers.
JANTI shall continue to enhance its own safety culture.
JANTI shall pursue scientific and rational decisions, and enhance its engineering skills and foresight.
JANTI shall maintain a third-party standpoint that is independent of its members.
JANTI shall actively respond to its members' requests for support.
JANTI shall value the exchange of opinions and partnerships with related organizations.
 

Objectives

JANTI adopts the following five items as our vision (objectives) in ten years in order to contribute to the revitalization of the nuclear power industry.
JANTI consolidates and systemizes engineering information and contributes to its effective use.
JANTI fully realizes its leading and supervisory role.
JANTI supports the development of human resources and organizational climate.
JANTI responds to its members' requests for support.
JANTI exercises a synergistic effect through cooperation with related organizations.
 

Cooperation with members

JANTI is steadily implementing efforts towards achieving its vision of what JANTI should be like in ten years. As well as the self-improvement and development of the Institution itself, the members of JANTI should make active use of JANTI, support JANTI, and strive to improve themselves-in other words, the cooperation of JANTI and its members is indispensable.
  
Outline of activities
The Japan Nuclear Technology Institute conducts activities as those shown below in order to further enhance the safety of nuclear power.
