To boost Nuclear Installation Performance and LTO (Long Term Operation)
The performance of installations and their lifespan (Long Term Operation, or LTO) are major challenges for the nuclear industry to meet medium-term electricity needs. More broadly, performance reflects the ability of an innovation, a company, a collective, an action, etc., to achieve strategic, financial, operational, commercial objectives effectively and efficiently. This ability can be assessed through various indicators such as profitability, productivity, quality, customer satisfaction, etc.
To contribute to more adaptive solutions to new challenges: need for pilotability, climate change, market instability or inefficiency…
In the context of new challenges, the nuclear industry will have to adapt to rising issues: increase of renewable energies in the energy mix, climate change, market instability, inefficiency of economic models. Nuclear production represents a decarbonized control tool to ensure the balance of supply-demand in electrical systems, and over several time scales: real-time to multi-year. In addition, the nuclear industry will have to adapt to climate change: extreme temperatures, water shortages… and economic models are key to provide the right incentives when these new challenges disrupt the energy markets.
To optimize construction costs and lead times
The construction of nuclear installations is a key factor in their profitability. Moreover, it contributes to the industry's image and acceptability.
To innovate beyond electricity (medical, agriculture, propulsion, heat, hydrogen, desalination ...)
The nuclear sector has significant development potential beyond electricity production, whether in the fields of heat production, low-carbon hydrogen and valuable molecules, space or medical nuclear, or in the field of agriculture.
