Licensing Issues of High Temperature Gas-cooled Reactor in Indonesia (Syaiful Bakhri1, a) Susyadi1 Wahid Lutfi1 Li Chuan2

Abstract. It is known that advance generation four reactor technology such as the pebble bed high temperature reactors
raises challenges for the regulatory body so that the technology can be developed and constructed. Although some countries
have successfully constructed High Temperature Gas Cooled Reactor (HTGR), however, the licensing still a challenging
and open issues due to unclear and unavailable off-the-self detail regulation for this type reactor. Therefore, the
investigation of the licensing issues to anticipate the implementation technology is urgently required. This study is carried
out by presenting the current status of licensing experiences in German, China, South Africa, Japan as well as the current
status of NPP licensing in Indonesia. This paper disused and delivers some recommendations to address the gaps or issues
identified
