HTR study by the Öko-Institut Freiburg
The thorium high-temperature reactor in Hamm and the planned high-temperature reactor variants
Assessment of needs and associated deployment strategies in the Federal Republic of Germany
Authors: Günther Frey, Uwe Fritsche, Andreas Herbert, Stephan Kohler
August 1986, publisher: Öko-Institut Freiburg
This comprehensive, 198-page study was carried out on behalf of the Green State Association of North Rhine-Westphalia. Criticism of the HTR line has become more topical and necessary than ever, as in the FRG the parties CDU and FDP prefer this reactor line within the framework of the nuclear power renaissance they advocate and generation IV reactors are massively promoted internationally by many states. If you are looking for scientifically based analyzes and counter-arguments, you will find them here.
