Evaluation of Suitability of Selected Set of Coal Plant Sites for Repowering with Small Modular Reactors
- Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL), Oak Ridge, TN (United States)
This report summarizes the approach that ORNL developed for screening a sample set of small coal stations for possible repowering with SMRs; the methodology employed, including spatial modeling; and initial results for these sample plants. The objective in conducting this type of siting evaluation is to demonstrate the capability to characterize specific sample coal plant sites to identify any particular issues associated with repowering existing coal stations with SMRs using OR-SAGE; it is not intended to be a definitive assessment per se as to the absolute suitability of any particular site.
