As more than 50% of nuclear power reactors in the USA are coming to the end of their 40 year life cycle, it is more important than ever to keep up to date with NRC requirements and benchmark with the others in the industry for more effective plant life management and licensing strategies. As NRC guidelines are making the licensing process and aftermath more complex, it is crucial than ever to implement practical steps to overcome the predicaments such as replacing nuclear components and the obsolescence of equipment, as well as degradation issues with underground piping and medium voltage cables.
Now in its 19th year, our annual PLIM/PLEX conference will be continuing to develop the crucial themes that are central to the technical and strategic life management of the nuclear power plants. Presentations from leading innovators in R&D, operators, utilities and regulators will provide answers to all of your key concerns including:
* Overcoming safety and regulatory issues * Applying effective plant management lifecycle * Dealing with ageing and degradation mechanisms * Keeping commitments and implementation during and after inspections * Discovering new Instrumentation & Control technologies * Never seen before case studies * New for this year! Roundtable discussions – viability of going beyond 60 and safety and regulatory implications
