The project has reached its mid-term. Many partners’ joint tasks are progressing, such as common interpretation of new experiments, organization of benchmarks between simulation codes and proposals of improved modelling of the most important phenomena. Stronger links must now be established with end-users through different entities like the Advisory Committee, the European SNETP and the PSA2 Community. In that perspective the Severe Accident Research Priorities group (SARP) is starting to update the 2008 reports to define and rank the priorities of R&D for severe accidents on Gen.II-III plants. These priorities will have to account for the impact of the recent Fukushima accident. Finally an important actor on severe accident R&D, BARC (India), is currently joining the network.
