| Sustaining the Existing Fleet of Light Water Reactor |
|---|
| Sustaining the value of the US nuclear power fleet can be achieved through cost-effective, reliable operation to deliver diversity, robustness, environmental benefits, and national leadership. Many owners plan to operate nuclear plants for 60 years and more to capture this value. Doing so requires ensuring the integrity of key materials and the economic viability of these plants in current and future energy markets. This paper presents a summary of research activities conducted by the DOE-sponsored Light Water Reactor Sustainability program to address key issues pertaining to the continued operation of the existing fleet of operating light water reactors. |
