Quad Cities violations lead to NRC confirmatory order
The Nuclear Regulatory Commission has sent a confirmatory order to Constellation Energy Generation outlining the agreed-on actions to address apparent violations of agency requirements at Quad Cities nuclear power plant in Cordova, Ill. The corrective and preventive actions are based on a June neutral party–mediated alternative dispute resolution (ADR) session that had been requested by Constellation to help it and agency decide on steps forward.

Innovative and collaborative work has progressed nationally and internationally regarding hybrid and integrated energy systems, including those with nuclear, nonnuclear (including hydrogen), and renewable components. Optimal energy generation and prioritization strategies can be advanced using various metrics such as reliability, security, affordability, flexibility, resiliency, and sustainability. In many cases, risk and reliability methods offer insights that are difficult to obtain otherwise to evaluate coordinated use of various energy generators to meet energy demands across the electricity, industrial, and transportation sectors. This panel will discuss national laboratory and commercial industry experience, challenges and insights gained considering integrated and hybrid energy systems using risk and reliability methods. Progress in building applicable datasets and running dynamic simulations will also be discussed.
