Approximately 20% of the electricity produced in the United States (U.S.) comes from nuclear power plants (NPPs). Originally, U.S. NPPs were qualified for an operational lifetime of 40 years and NPPs can apply for 20-year license extensions following the original 40-year operating period. While most NPPs have entered extended license periods to 60 years, some are considering license extension to 80 years of operation. The viability of a subsequent license renewal (SLR) is dependent upon NPPs operating safely in accordance with a licensing basis similar to that established with the original 40-year license.

Life Beyond 80: Can Concrete Degradation’ Synergetic Modes Become Showstoppers for Light Water Reactors?

Product Number: ED22-17261-SG
Author: Yann Le Pape, Elena Tajuelo Rodriguez, Bethel Amani Cheniour, Mohammed Alnaggar, Paula Bran Anleu, Thomas M. Rosseel, David Arregui Mena, Adam Brooks
Publication Date: 2022

The US light water reactor (LWR) fleet is a strategic US asset for meeting the demand for clean, sustained, and affordable energy. Extended operations are governed by endogenous (e.g., aging management, operation costs) and exogenous (e.g., natural gas, deployment of advanced nuclear reactors) economic factors but also by technical issues associated with doubling the original 40 year license period. Materials aging includes all critical components of the reactors, such as internals, reactor pressure vessel, cabling, and concrete structures.

Long-Term Aging Behavior Of Cold-Worked Alloy 690 In Simulated PWR Primary Water

Product Number: ED22-18358-SG
Author: Ziqing Zhai, Matthew J. Olszta, Mychailo B. Toloczko
Publication Date: 2022

Alloy 690 has been utilized since the late 1980s as a replacement for Alloy 600 in pressurized water reactors (PWR) pressure boundary components due to laboratory data indicating higher resistance to stress corrosion cracking (SCC). Although to date no SCC incidents have been reported on Alloy 690 components in service, the growing interest of extending the operation life of PWRs beyond 60 or even 80 years has raised concerns for the potential occurrence of long-range ordering (LRO) in Alloy 690 and its compatible weld metals.
