Uprates of existing nuclear power plants, as a part of the US Electric Industry’s balanced blend of clean, new generation, has the potential to increase electrical capacity by 15%-20%. 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 pre...
