KEY FEATURES AND ANALYSIS FOR 2012

An efficient and comprehensive plan is crucial for the successful implementation of the post-Fukushima compulsory plant safety enhancements and modifications at nuclear facilities.

By implementing a detailed and well managed programme, it will help in overcoming the key challenges of funding constraints, skilled personnel, risk reduction, and compliance with regulations. 

This year, you will receive exclusive insight into:

• International action plans to strengthen nuclear safety, emergency preparedness and radiation protection
  
  
• Exclusive Case Study from Brazil’s Eletronuclear Angra Nuclear Power Station Safety Reevaluation

• Solutions to maintaining safety after a catastrophic event so you can utilize emergency equipment
  
  
• Use of hardened vents in Mark 1 & 2 containers and spent fuel pool instrumentation

• Assessment of Emergency Preparedness and Severe Accident Management plans

• Re-evaluating Seismic & Flooding Hazards, Risk Assessments and the Walk-downs for Seismic and Flooding Compliance
  
  
• Containment protection strategies and filtered containment venting systems technology being adopted today internationally

• Exclusive analysis into the worldwide nuclear industry impact of the Fukushima accident

"A must-do conference for those interested in learning about this" Duane Olcsvary, Director of Supply Chain, TVA

WHY THIS CONFERENCE IS SO CRITICAL

The US nuclear industry has been making great strides to work together and ensure that all post-Fukushima safety evaluations and enhancements are compliant and executed timely and effectively.

Implementing a detailed and well managed program will help in overcoming the key challenges of technical issues, skilled personnel, emergency preparedness, risk reduction, and compliance with regulations. 

Behind the key challenges of technical issues, skilled personnel, emergency preparedness, risk reduction, and compliance with regulations is the financial question: How much will it cost?

There are international examples from which we can make an educated guess on cost implications behind installation, implementation and engineering procedures:

France: Following orders to carry out extra safety measures to guard against “extreme” situations after the Fukushima nuclear disaster, EDF has estimated that the safety upgrade work at each of its 58 reactors will cost about €10 billion ($13.3 billion) and take until 2018.

South Africa: Eskom spent $250 million on safety upgrades and improving spent fuel pool instrumentation at the Koeberg Nuclear Power Station

Brazil: Eletronuclear is looking to spend $200 million on stress tests and modification work at the Angra Nuclear Power Station.

The conference will provide in-depth analysis into cost estimation as well as:

• The latest regulatory updates regarding the post-Fukushima safety orders
• International approaches to nuclear plant safety amendments
• Case studies from the industry’s leading utilities
• The latest developments in digital modifications, spent fuel pools, hardened vent upgrades and beyond design basis issues
• Contracting and procurement strategies to ensure safety enhancement operations are fully and effectively resourced

This conference will bring together over 150 senior decision makers and experts from across the globe working in nuclear emergency planning, safety, engineering, and operations for two days of business critical intelligence, unrivalled networking and stimulating discussion.
