Repowering a Coal Power Plant Steam Cycle Using Modular Light-Water Reactor Technology

This article presents the results of a techno-economic analysis of repowering a coal-fired power plant’s steam turbine system to instead accept heat produced by a pressurized water reactor-type small modular nuclear system (PWR SMR). This type of repowering presents a challenge due to the significan...
