This study examines the KBS-3 method for nuclear waste management developed by the Swedish Nuclear Fuel Waste Management Company (SKB). This report strives to uncover potential challenges and opportunities for the future development of KBS-3. The study is relevant because the Swedish government is investing in nuclear power where waste must be safely stored to protect the environment from radiation. From a technical perspective, the results indicate a difficult balance between developing the method in line with new research and realising the project. A possible method for the future is reprocessing, but even here the need for KBS-3 would remain as a smaller amount of waste still needs to be stored. Furthermore, from a social perspective, there does not seem to be a clear consensus between researchers and the industry, particularly regarding corrosion risks. Although these discussions can improve the method, there is a risk that they may negatively impact public trust in KBS-3. Similarly, regarding the commercialisation of stakeholder management: it is important that social acceptance is earned through genuine engagement rather than something being sold. From a cost perspective, small improvements are crucial for KBS-3. Saving money within the value chain without compromising safety is vital, but SKB must communicate such changes openly to ensure continued social acceptance. Balancing conflicting goals: technology, social acceptance, and costs seem to reflect a broader societal challenge where different interests often oppose each other. While some may be satisfied with KBS-3 for final disposal even in the future, others may want to continue striving for a solution that does not burden future generations at all. Regardless, KBS-3 can continue to develop as a solution for nuclear waste management in Sweden until a more sustainable method emerges.
