Welcome to the Nuclear Infrastructure Development Information Management System

A nuclear power programme is a major undertaking requiring a long-term commitment and an adequate national nuclear infrastructure for safe, secure, peaceful and sustainable operation. The IAEA provides integrated support to Member States considering, embarking on or expanding nuclear power programmes. This support is based on the publication Milestones in the Development of a National Infrastructure for Nuclear Power (IAEA Nuclear Energy Series No. NG-G-3.1 (Rev. 2)), which is widely used around the world and is complemented by various documents, tools and services, including the following:

• The publication Evaluation of the Status of National Nuclear Infrastructure Development (IAEA Nuclear Energy Series No. NG-T-3.2 (Rev. 2)), a guidance for Member States on how to assess the progress of their infrastructure development for nuclear power, based on the Milestones Approach.
• The Integrated Nuclear Infrastructure Review (INIR) , an IAEA peer review service to assist Member States in evaluating the status of their national nuclear infrastructure on the basis of the Milestones Approach and the associated 19 infrastructure issues.
• The Integrated Work Plan (IWP) , a strategic planning framework jointly developed by the IAEA and the Member State that defines the IAEA’s integrated activities to support the country’s nuclear power infrastructure development.
• The Country Nuclear Infrastructure Profile (CNIP) , a database for presenting and monitoring the status of a nuclear newcomer country’s infrastructure development, following a self-evaluation or an INIR mission.
• The Nuclear Infrastructure Competency Framework (CF), a publicly available database with the purpose of assisting Member States in planning the activities required throughout all phases of the introduction of a new nuclear power programme, as well as developing the competencies and capabilities required to implement these activities.

NIDIMS integrates relevant aspects of the above in an online platform, thus allowing Member States to collect, update and view data regarding their nuclear power infrastructure development and exchange information on related matters with the IAEA.

Access to the platform is granted only to the NIDIMS National Coordinator and other registered users formally nominated by Member States considering, embarking on, or expanding nuclear power programmes. For further information, please read NIDIMS frequently asked questions or contact NIDIMS@iaea.org.

NOTE: NIDIMS is currently in the pilot phase. Users are advised that during this pilot phase some functionalities may be limited.
