In 2019, the Department of Energy (DOE) awarded Idaho National Laboratory (INL) a grant to develop dynamic procedures and decision-support solutions for advanced reactors. The grant was aimed towards developing and commercializing a system with the functionality to revolutionize operator and system efficiency, as compared to existing paper-based processes. Hear firsthand from principal experts as they describe insights about the new technology that aims to address a variety of industry challenges. Topics of discussion include barriers to adoption and the large number of procedures and data architecture required to address advanced reactors that feature increased levels of automation, sensors, and instrumentation. Panelists will also discuss innovative ways their universities are using the generic PWR (gPWR) full scope simulator in research and the classroom to educate the next generation of nuclear industry professionals.
