49. NUCLEAR SUPPLY CHAIN –
POTENTIAL AREAS

50. NUCLEAR SUPPLY CHAIN IN CONSIDERATION
1)The choice of reactor design & type
eg Pressurized Water Reactor - PWR, VVER,
AP1000 , EPR etc
Boiling Water Reactor – BWR, ABWR etc
2) Consortium structures established
Reactor Vendors ( Westinghouse, AREVA, KEPCO,
Toshiba etc ) & their chosen/selected nuclear suppliers ( local and/or
international companies ) to support the construction of the nuclear power
reactor and plant.

51. NUCLEAR SUPPLY CHAIN IN CONSIDERATION
3 a) Availability and/or lead times of critical components and
services
eg Reactor Pressure Vessel (RPV) , Steam Generators,
pipework and valves, and main Engineering, Procurement and
Construction (EPC) contractor , plant management capacities, etc
- which could lead to delays in a national nuclear new build,
and/or to cost escalation.
b) It would be strategic and imperative to review and identify/determine
what would the countries and companies need to develop or
produce components , which currently (or in future) cannot be
obtained from overseas suppliers without long delays, which
could ultimately threaten both the:
• security and
•
affordability of energy supplies

52. NUCLEAR SUPPLY CHAIN IN CONSIDERATION
4. Many capable companies exist in Malaysian industry but they lack nuclear
experience, where specifications are often different from usual industry
standards
Thus local companies must be introduced to and updated
regarding Codes ,Standards and Accreditation by International
Organizations including the ASME, USA etc
a) In striving to enter the nuclear industry sector
b) to ensure public safety
c) facilitation of international business acceptance and
d) enhance export opportunities
5. WNA – Economy of scale in supply chain and transfer technology, a
minimum number of new builds should not be less than 10 power plants.

54. PUBLIC ACCEPTANCE SCENARIO IN
MALAYSIA

55. • The decision by government to explore nuclear option for
electricity generation attract mixed reaction from the
public – pro and against;
• It is becoming increasingly challenging in Malaysia to
implement technologies because of the widespread public
opposition, influential non-government organizations
(NGOs) and also strong sentiment from minority groups;
• Public records and news sources covering the reactions of
these groups towards various beneficial projects requires
more sophisticated PI/PA strategies to be employed

61. Biggest Challenge of Public Acceptance

What about the waste?
Isn’t it too expensive?
Where to get the fuel?
Nuclear accidents?

64. 1. The current nuclear industry in Malaysia is concentrated in
non-power applications
2. The nuclear industry has progressed in Malaysia and
positively contributed to socio-economic development of the
country
3. Realization of nuclear power program in the future will offer
significant prospect for Malaysian industry as well as access to
advanced technology and business opportunities
4. Continuous improvement in terms of infrastructure, resources
and capability is continent to uplift local nuclear industry
