AI at work: Southern Nuclear’s adoption of Copilot agents drives fleet forward
Southern Nuclear is leading the charge in artificial intelligence integration, with employee-developed applications driving efficiencies in maintenance, operations, safety, and performance.
The tools span all roles within the company, with thousands of documented uses throughout the fleet, including improved maintenance efficiency, risk awareness in maintenance activities, and better-informed decision-making. The data-intensive process of preparing for and executing maintenance operations is streamlined by leveraging AI to put the right information at the fingertips for maintenance leaders, planners, schedulers, engineers, and technicians.

A library of cross-sections BISERM has been developed for the analysis of radiation damage sensitivity of nuclear power plant structural materials irradiated by nucleons of energies up to 800 MeV. The library contains information on neutron and proton displacement cross-sections, helium and hydrogen production cross-sections for 190 isotopes. The evaluation of the given cross-sections has been performed with a set of DIDACS/90 codes developed by the authors.
