Abstract
Nuclear power is a promising approach to sustaining energy security and saving the global environment from the global warming crisis. Thailand also considers initiating the first nuclear power plant preparations. Several activities, including policy strategy and action plan development are being carefully processed to handle this challenging project for which several shortcomings, such as public acceptance, nuclear safety, project transparency, policy instability etc., have to be overcome. Public acceptance is the most difficult for project implementation. One of the most interesting solutions is to educate people about the impact as well as the management approaches of the project for mitigating any negative consequences. In this study, the impacts of a nuclear power project are investigated and identified, and impact management approaches are also suggested.
