Christmas Light
’Twas the night before Christmas when all through the house
No electrons were flowing through even my mouse.
All devices were plugged by the chimney with care
With the hope that St. Nikola Tesla would share.

Session Organizer:
To meet decarbonization goals, existing coal power plants need to be retrofit, repowered, or retired. Repowering a coal-fired power plant with a new nuclear power plant presents some interesting opportunities and challenges, especially if existing turbogenerators could be repurposed. This panel will discuss design options and efforts underway worldwide to pursue this decarbonization strategy.
