Abstract
This paper presents modelling results of storage casks neutron activation during 300 year storage period. Modelling results show, that after 50 years of storage, side-wall and bottom of CASTOR®RBMK-1500 cask are activated above clearance criteria. However, for 100-300 year storage period all of the casks components could be free released.
