Crud Induced Power Shift (CIPS) has been reasonably well-managed in the United States PWR fleet since 2014; however, recent interest for extended cycle lengths and power uprates have renewed focus on understanding CIPS risk assessment and defining margin for more aggressive core designs. This panel session will focus on utility issues and concerns, and highlight the risk assessment methods and tools available to the industry.
