149:. After the event, nuclear operators worldwide began to work together through WANO to improve safety and reliability to prevent recurrences. Experience shows that many accidents could have been prevented if lessons would have been learned from previous incidents. WANO unites every company and country that has an operating commercial nuclear power plant to achieve the highest possible standards of nuclear safety and reliability. The organization enables members to provide mutual support, exchange safety knowledge and operating experience, and share best practices with each other to improve performance. WANO’s members operate approximately 460 nuclear units in over 30 countries and areas worldwide.

Around 140 delegates from 29 countries pledged their backing for the organisation and signed its new charter. Today, it supports more than 130 members who operate approximately 460 civil nuclear power reactors around the world.

WANO helps members communicate and share information through its five main programs: Peer Review, Performance
Analysis, Member Support, Training & Development and Corporate Communications. WANO has offices in London and Shanghai, and has regional centers in Atlanta, Moscow, Paris and Tokyo.

The
Performance Analysis programme collects, screens and analyses operating experience and performance data, providing members with understanding of data through industry performance reports. Fundamental to its success is the willingness of WANO members to openly share operating experience and
