At Elektronen– the Shared office of Uniper, OKG and SKB, in central Oskarshamn

Learn more about the decommissioning programme at OKG and Barsebäck, and take the opportunity to explore a modern exhibition showcasing how we take responsibility for the full lifecycle of nuclear power.

The presentation introduces Uniper’s ongoing work to decommission the nuclear reactors Oskarshamn 1–2 and Barsebäck 1–2. The program represents one of the largest nuclear decommissioning initiatives in Sweden and has drawn international attention for its focus on cost- and schedule-efficient execution.

The talk will provide a high-level overview of the program and share perspectives from Sweden’s ongoing nuclear decommissioning efforts.

The study visit will include: A talk on Uniper’s Swedish Decommissioning Programme, access to OKG and SKB’s new exhibition, and a coffee break. 

Duration for study visit: 1,5 hour

Deadline for registration: 1 september 2026

Maximum number of visitors: 60 persons

Important information: Please bring valid ID. This visit is coordinated with a visit to SKB’s encapsulation laboratory or SAFT Batteries in Oskarshamn harbour, scheduled either before or after the seminar at Elektronen. Further information will be provided by the organiser.

Description of the company:

OKG is a proud supplier of fossil-free electricity. The company, with its almost 600 employees, is located on the Simpevarpshalvön about 30 km north of Oskarshamn, with a fantastic view of Kalmarsund and Blå Jungfrun. Here are three of Sweden’s nuclear power reactors, Oskarshamnsverket 1, 2 and 3. Oskarshamn 3 is one of the world’s largest boiling water reactors with a maximum power of 1450 MW. It is equipped to be in operation until year 2045, at least. During 2021, Oskarshamn 3 produced 11 TWh of fossil free electricity, which is enough to supply around 1 000 000 Swedish households.

For a long time, OKG only had one mission – to produce electricity in a climate-efficient way. But now, the task to take care of the dismantling of the two shut-down reactors is also included. By taking responsibility, we are preparing the way for the nuclear power of the future. We are also producing and selling hydrogen.

The study visit will include: A guided tour on controlled area. The tour will include a visit to the reactor balcony and the turbine balcony.

Description of the company:

SKB is owned by the nuclear power companies and they have a statutory duty to deal with the disposal of Swedish nuclear waste and to pay for these operations. SKB task is to deal with all the radioactive waste from nuclear power plants in Sweden in a safe way. Today we have a system for dealing with nuclear waste that works. Since the mid-1980s both the Final Repository for Short-Lived Radioactive Waste (SFR) and Central Interim Storage Facility for Spent Nuclear Fuel (Clab) have been in operation.

Since the 1970s SKB has been developing a method to enable the handling and management of spent nuclear fuel safely for long periods of time. We have undertaken research and development and have conducted studies and investigations. The method we have selected means that the fuel is placed in copper canisters surrounded by bentonite clay about 500 metres underground in Swedish bedrock,

The study visit will include: During the visit, we will walk through the test facilities, followed by a presentation on the long-term durability of the canisters.

Duration for study visit: 1-2 hours

Deadline for registration: 1 september 2026

Maximum number of visitors: 30 persons

Important information: There will be a joint walk to SKB Canister Laboratory, approximately Length approx 1,6 kilometers one way.
