There has been a clearer realization of the finite nature of oil resources and the ever higher pushing demand for energy. The world has yet to stabilize on the complex geopolitical undercurrents which influence the oil and gas production as well as supply strategies globally. Aruvian's R'search’s report – Analyzing the Energy Industry in United States - analyzes the scope of American energy production from varied traditional sources as well as the developing renewable energy sources. In view of understanding energy transactions, the report also studies the revenue returns for investors in various energy channels which manifest themselves in American energy demand and supply dynamics. In depth view has been provided in this report of US oil, electricity, natural gas, nuclear power, coal, wind, and hydroelectric sectors. The various geopolitical interests and intentions governing the exploitation, production, trade and supply of these resources for energy production has also been analyzed by this report in a non-partisan manner. The report starts with a descriptive base analysis of the characteristics of the global energy industry in terms of economic quantity of demand. The drivers of demand and the traditional resources which are used to fulfill this demand are explained along with the emerging mandate of nuclear energy.

  • Nrc Liaison Report
    SC-2Mtg07-2_Att#10 NRC LIAISON REPORT • STP first company to step forward in decades seeking new reactor license The application, a 200,000-page document submitted on a single DVD, was filed on September 24. The staff and STP officials met October 11 for the first public meeting since the application was filed. NRC staffers outlined several issues during the meeting, including a lack of supporting documents for at least two sections, outdated data for one section, missing figures for another and, in one instance, the absence of state emergency preparedness plans that were cross-referenced in the application. • TVA Opts For AP1000 Design Instead Of Completing Partially Finished Existing Reactors. TVA is submitting the combined operating license request nearly two decades after work stopped in 1988 toward building two similar-sized reactors at Bellefonte. TVA officials determined that finishing those reactors, which the agency started building in 1973, would be too costly." Application will be the first involving construction of a Westinghouse AP1000 advanced reactor, made by Westinghouse Electric Co., which is owned by Japan's Toshiba Corp. • Grid Security A video released last month by CNN illustrates the potential danger to the power grid, experts say. While in the past, most had imagined a cyberattack might shut down patches of the US grid for a few days at worst, But the video shows a demonstration by the Idaho National Laboratory that a large electric generator shaking violently, spraying metal parts, and spewing smoke before grinding to a stop. The method of attack used in that demonstration could be replicated to destroy more and larger equipment, several experts say.

  • 20071204-Ucs-Brief-Got-Water
    GOT WATER? Nuclear power plants are usually built next to lakes, rivers, and oceans.1 Not for the scenic views that such locales provide, but because water can absorb the waste heat produced by the plants. Nuclear power plants consume vast amounts of water during normal operation to absorb the waste heat left over after making electricity and also to cool the equipment and buildings used in generating that electricity. In event of an accident, nuclear power plants need water to remove the decay heat produced by the reactor core and also to cool the equipment and buildings used to provide the core’s heat removal. This issue brief describes the reliance of nuclear power plants on nearby bodies of water during normal operation and under accident conditions. All of the 104 nuclear reactors currently licensed to operate in the United States are light2 water reactors. Sixty-nine (69) are pressurized water reactors (PWRs) and 35 are boiling water reactors (BWRs). In a PWR, water flowing through the reactor core is In a BWR, water flowing through the reactor core is heated by its thermal energy. Because this water is heated by its thermal energy and boils. The steam flows maintained under high pressure (over 2,000 pounds per from the reactor vessel to the turbine. The steam spins the square inch), it does not boil even when heated to over turbine, which is connected to a generator that produces 500ºF. The hot water flows from the reactor vessel and electricity. The steam exits the turbine into the condenser. enters thousands of metal tubes within the steam Water from the nearby lake, river, or ocean flows through generator.

Hanson Senior VP, Exelon Generation Co., LLC President and CNO, Exelon Nuclear 4300 Winfield Road Warrenville, IL 60555 SUBJECT: DRESDEN NUCLEAR POWER STATION, UNITS 2 AND 3—NRC INTEGRATED INSPECTION REPORT 05000237/2017002 AND 05000249/2017002 Dear Mr. Hanson: On June 30, 2017, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) completed an integrated inspection at your Dresden Nuclear Power Station, Units 2 and 3. On June 30, 2017, the NRC inspectors discussed the results of this inspection with Mr. J. Washko and other members of your staff. The results of this inspection are documented in the enclosed report. Based on the results of this inspection, one issue was self-revealed and was evaluated under the risk significance determination process as having very low safety significance (Green). The NRC has also determined a violation is associated with this issue. Because the licensee initiated a condition report to address this issue, the violation is being treated as a Non-Cited Violation (NCV), consistent with Section 2.3.2 of the Enforcement Policy. This NCV is described in the subject inspection report. If you contest the violations or significance of this NCV, you should provide a response within 30 days of the date of this inspection report, with the basis for your denial, to the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, ATTN: Document Control Desk, Washington, DC 20555–0001, with copies to the Regional Administrator, Region III; the Director, Office of Enforcement; and the NRC Resident Inspector at the Dresden Nuclear Power Station.

  • Cheap Natural Gas, Stagnant Power Demand, and Power Prices That
    Cheap natural gas, stagnant power demand, and power prices that have fallen significantly since 2008 have jeopardized the economics of about two-thirds of the nation’s 100-GW nuclear capacity, according to a working paper from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) Center for Energy and Environmental Policy Research. About 21 GW in merchant deregulated markets are retiring, or are at high risk of retiring the paper suggests. Here’s a profitability outlook for all 61 nuclear plants in the U.S. over the short term (between 2017 and 2019), according to the research entity.

This report was prepared in conjunction with Entergy Operations’ application to the U. S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission to renew the operating license for ANO-1. In compliance with applicable NRC requirements, this ER analyzes potential environmental impacts associated with renewal of the ANO-1 license. It is designed to assist the NRC staff with the preparation of the ANO-1 specific Supplemental Environmental Impact Statement that is required for license renewal. The content of the ER complies with the requirements of 10CFR Part 51, as augmented by the NRC’s “Generic Environmental Impact Statement for License Renewal of Nuclear Plants” (NUREG-1437). Specifically, the ANO-1 ER complies with 10CFR54.23, which requires license renewal applicants to submit a supplement to the ER that complies with requirements of Subpart A of 10CFR Part 51. This report also addresses the more detailed requirements of NRC environmental regulations in 10CFR51.45 and 10CFR51.53, as well as the underlying intent of the National Environmental Policy Act, 42 U.S.C. § 4321 et seq.
