| NEW
Grimsel Website |
| Welcome
to the new website for the Grimsel Test Site which features
brand new sections, latest updates on running experiments
and a range of interactive features. |

The Grimsel Test Site (GTS) was established over 20 years
ago as a centre for underground Research and Development (R&D)
supporting a wide range of research projects on the disposal of
radioactive waste.
The GTS provides an environment which is analogous to that of a
repository site so allowing the development and testing of equipment,
methodology and models under fully realistic conditions.
The GTS is a scientific test site and not a potential repository
site; although investigations may utilise a wide range of radioactive
tracers, no radioactive waste will be disposed of at the GTS.
