This paper presents the recent results obtained in the frame of Joint Research Centre - Institute for Energy (JRC-IE) institutional project “Use of Probabilistic Safety Assessment for Evaluation of Ageing Effects”. The project started in 2004, having as participants, organizations (utilities, regulatory authorities, research and technical support organizations) from EC MS, Swiss, RF, Armenia and Korea.The network intends to contribute to the understanding and assessment of ageing effects on the performances of the plants, and to promote the use of PSA for ageing management and for risk-informed decisions.
► Project resulting knowledge is useful for incorporation of ageing effects into current PSA models. ► The recent developments in area of SSC selection, data analysis and data collection are presented. ► APSA expected results are contributing to a better understanding of ageing modelling issues.
