St. Lucie dry storage campaign completed in record time, Holtec says
Holtec International has completed a spent nuclear fuel dry storage campaign at NextEra Energy’s St. Lucie nuclear power plant in record time, according to the company. Twelve of Holtec's HI-STORM FW cask systems were loaded to the plant’s independent spent fuel storage installation (ISFSI) in little over a month. In total, 144 used fuel assemblies were moved from St. Lucie’s used fuel pools to the ISFSI pad.
