The Pool currently participates on insurance and/or reinsurance of more than 386 nuclear power plants throughout the world, including both Czech nuclear power plants - Dukovany NPP and Temelín NPP.

International teams of engineers execute regular surveys of both of our nuclear power plants. Results of the surveys serve to assess the risks particularly for the use of insurers. Operators of power plants use recommendations of insurance experts in order to reduce the risk of operation of the nuclearinstallations.Czech Nuclear Insurance Pool operates within a worldwide community of national nuclear insurance pools and is actively contributing to the development of business and technical co-operation.

The business exchange comprises of active (i.e. assumed) and passive (i.e. ceded) reinsurance business with more than twenty foreign national pools.

The technical co-operation provides exchange of information, arranging of surveys on nuclear power plants as well as organization of assessment of insured losses.
