The Department of Energy Light Water Reactor Sustainability Program Plant Modernization Pathway has been focused on cost effective, technology enabled, transformational change to extend existing nuclear plant lifetimes to 80-100 years. This discussion will provide the HMIT/NPIC community with insights into how LWRS methods and research results not only impact legacy nuclear plant plant designs and concepts of operation but can also be leveraged and coordinated in such a way as to simultaneously support new plant design and eventual operation in a mixed plant environment.
