This can be achieved by utilizing Measurement Uncertainty Recapture, Stretch and Extended Power Uprates. The Nuclear Energy Institute document, “Roadmap for Power Uprate Program Development and Implementation,” (NEI 08-10 Rev 0 July 2009) provides a road map for future Power Uprate projects based on a collaborative effort between the US Nuclear Industry Utilities and Design/Manufacturing vendors. The guidance was based on lessons learned and examples provided by utilities and vendors over the last decade of experience. Progress Energy presented a case study on Crystal River Nuclear Plant Margin Management and Lessons Learned during an NEI industry forum in January 2010. This case study has been revamped to incorporate feedback requesting additional topics and an overview of the project planning process. Progress Energy has partnered with AREVA and WorleyParsons, the original OEMs for the Nuclear Steam Supply System, Fuel, Safety Analyses and Turbine Plant Systems. This collaborative effort sets the stage for future Progress Energy and Industry Extended Power Uprates. (PRWeb May 3, 2010)
