The World Nuclear Association (WNA) is the international organization that promotes nuclear power and supports the companies that comprise the global nuclear industry. Its members come from all parts of the nuclear fuel cycle, including uranium mining, uranium conversion, uranium enrichment, nuclear fuel fabrication, plant manufacture, transport, and the disposition of used nuclear fuel as well as electricity generation itself.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Membership )〕 Together, WNA members are responsible for 70% of the world's nuclear power as well as the vast majority of world uranium, conversion and enrichment production.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.world-nuclear.org/about/members.html )〕 The WNA says it aims to fulfill a dual role for its members: Facilitating their interaction on technical, commercial and policy matters and promoting wider public understanding of nuclear technology. It has a secretariat of around 35 staff. The WNA was founded in 2001 on the basis of the Uranium Institute, itself founded in 1975. == Membership == The WNA continues to expand its membership, particularly in non-OECD countries where nuclear power is produced or where this option is under active consideration. WNA members are located in 35 countries representing 80% of the world's population. The annual subscription fee for an institutional member is based on its size and scale of activity. Upon receiving an inquiry or application, WNA's London-based secretariat determines the fee according to standard criteria and informs the candidate organisation accordingly. The fee structure provides, in many cases, for significant discounts for organisations located in countries outside the OECD.〔 A low-fee non-commercial membership is available for organisations with a solely academic, research, policy or regulatory function. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「World Nuclear Association」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
