This panel discusses the regulatory aspects of Digital Twin (DT) application in nuclear and its capabilities within regulated activities related to nuclear power plant (NPP) facilities, fuel cycle facilities, and other related facilities. The ongoing and planned near-term efforts for DTs in nuclear reactor applications are mostly focused on non-safety systems and processes. An increasing industry application of DT technology may result in greater benefit and confidence in the application of these technologies. Such applications may have direct and indirect impacts on NRC-regulated activities.
