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.
