U.K. government to take over Hunterston B for decommissioning
Beginning April 1, the U.K.’s Nuclear Decommissioning Authority (NDA) and its subsidiary Nuclear Restoration Services (NRS) will take over the closed Hunterston B nuclear power plant for decommissioning. Located in North Ayrshire, Scotland, Hunterston B was shut down in 2022 after 46 years of service and is one of seven advanced gas-cooled reactor stations owned and operated by EDF Energy in the United Kingdom.

This paper presents a novel technique using a shunt active power filter (SAPF) control strategy to reduce the harmonics generated by the power converter. A three-phase SAPF using the Takagi Sugeno (TS) fuzzy technique is used to reduce current distortion. The proposed TS fuzzy controller is a suitable candidate using SAPF techniques. In order to realize an acceptable distortion limit, TS fuzzy control uses SAPF to realize the performance of the system. The simulation results validate the proposed fuzzy control strategy by a Matlab/Simulink model.
