Abstract: In Spain, after almost a decade of delay in the construction of a centralised interim storage facility, the spent nuclear fuel (SNF) context has suffered a significant change. Thus, the aim of this article is to present the Mariño model, which analyses the costs of different back-end scenarios by means of the net present value and the material flows calculation, in order to re-examine the SNF management strategy for Spain and to help determine which alternative suits better this new context.
