Modernizing I&C for operations and maintenance, one phase at a time
The two reactors at Dominion Energy’s Surry plant are among the oldest in the U.S. nuclear fleet. Yet when the plant celebrated its 50th anniversary in 2023, staff could raise a toast to the future. Surry was one of the first plants to file a subsequent license renewal (SLR) application, and in May 2021, it became official: the plant was licensed to operate for a full 80 years, extending its reactors’ lifespans into 2052 and 2053.

On May 23, 2025, President Trump issued Executive Order (EO) 14302, directing that the official policy of the United States government is to promote and expedite the expansion of nuclear energy technology and associated industries. The EO sets ambitious goals focused on adding new GWs to the grid through uprates and new large nuclear projects, improving nuclear fuel supply chains, and addressing national spent nuclear fuel management challenges. Understanding how companies aim to support these ambitious goals and how the transformational issues like nuclear waste management could be tackled will be paramount to potential collaborators, advocates, vendors, and others interested in the growth of nuclear energy in the United States.
