Development of a strategy for full nuclear plant modernization

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingConference contributionpeer-review

Abstract

Researchers sponsored by the United States Department of Energy Light Water Reactor Sustainability (LWRS) Program collaborate with several nuclear utilities on the modernization of their control room instrumentation and control (I&C) systems. In late 2017, an LWRS project team with expertise in nuclear power plant operations, I&C systems engineering, and human factors engineering started developing a strategy for full nuclear plant modernization. This paper documents the latest steps LWRS program researchers have taken to develop this strategy. Taken together with prior reports written on this specific topic, the work described here provides a clear picture on what the strategy for full nuclear plant modernization should look like.
