(3 Abstract The Nuclear Regulatory Commission on generating capacity and average Information Digest provides a capacity factor for operating U.S.

summary of information about the commercial nuclear power reactors is U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission obtained from monthly operating (NRC), NRC's regulatory responsi.

reports that are submitted directly to bilities, the activities NRC licenses, the NRC by the licensee. This and generalinformation on domestic information is reviewed by the NRC and worldwide nuclear energy. This for consistency only and no digest is a compilation of nuclear-independent validation and/or and NRC-related data and is verification is performed.

designed to provide a quick reference to major facts about the agency and For detailed and complete information the industry it regulates, in general, about tables and figures, refer to the the data cover 1975 through 1991, source publications. This digest is with exceptions noted. Information published annually.

r-U GLOSSARY AGREEMENT STATE: A State that has signed an agreement with the NRC allowing the State to regulate the use of radioactive material within that State.

BOILING-WATER REACTOR (BWR): A nuclear reactor in which water, used as both coolant and moderator, is allowed to boil in the core.

CAPABILITY: The maximum load that a generating station can carry under specified conditions for a given period of time without exceeding approved limits of temperature and stress. Net summer capability is used in this report.

Measured in watts.

CAPACITY FACTOR (Gross): The ratio of the gross electricity generated, for the period of time considered, to the energy that could have been generated at continuous full power operation during the same period.

CAPACITY FACTOR (Net): The ratio of the net electricity generated, for the period of time considered, to the energy that could have been generated at continuous full power operation during the same period.

g'j COMPACE A group of two or more States formed to dispose of low level 1

radioactive waste on a regional basis. Forty-two States have formed nine compacts.

CONSTRUCTION RECAPTURE: The maximum number of years that could bc added to the license expiration date to recover the period from the construction permit to the date when the operating license was granted. A licensee is required to submit an application for such a change.

GENERATION (Gross): The total amount of electric energy produced by a generating station as measured at the generator termi,1als. Measured in watthours.

GENERATION (Net): The gross amount of electric energy produced less the electric energy consumed at a generating station for station use. Measured in watthours.

GENERATION EXPENSE: Ge,1eration expenses include costs associated both with production expenses (operation, maintenance and fuel costs) and with capital expenses (taxes, depreciation, interest, return on equity, etc.).

Generation expenses comprise the total cost of producing electricity that is the

(,)

basis for rates charged to electric utility customers. Production expenses are variable costs that a utility has some short-term control over and may vary 110 NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION

dWpe+

)

according to the amount of electricity generated in a year. Capital expenses are

'd generally fixed charges that are amortized over a facility's life and must be paid whether or not a facility operates.

GIGAWATT: One billion watts.

GIGAWATTHOUR : One billion watthours.

HIGH LEVEL WASTE: High level radioactive waste (HLW) means (I) irradiated (spent) reactor fuel; (2) liquid waste resulting from the operation of the first cycle solvent extraction system, and the concentrated wastes from subsequent extraction cycles, in a facility for reprocessing irradiated reactor fuel, and (3) solids into which such liquid wastes have been converted. HLW is primarily in the form of spent fuel discharged from commercial nuclear power rear, tors; it also includes some reprocessed HLW from defense activities, and a small quantity of reprocessed commercial HLW.

LOW LEVEL WASTE: Low-level radioactive waste is a general term or a wide range of wastes. Industries; hospitals and medical, educational, or r search q

institutions; private or government laboratories; and nuclear fuel cycle facilities Q'

(e.g., nuclear power reactors and fuel fabrication plants) using radioactive mater >ls generate low-level wastes as part of their normal operations. These wastes are generated in many physical and chemical forms and levels of contamination.

MAJOR INVESTOR-OWNED ELECTRIC UTILITY: An investor cwned electric utility that has had in the last three consecutive calendar years sales of electricity or transmission service that exceed at least one of the following: (1) 1 million megawatthours of total annual sales of electricity, (2)_100 megawattbours of annual sales of electricity for resale, (3) 500 megawatt 5ours of annual gross exchange of electricity between utilities, or (4) Sr)0 megawatthours of whi.sling for others (deliveries plus losses). Investor-owned electric utilities account for about 75 percent of total generation in the United States.

MAXIMUM DEPENDABLE CAPACITY (Gross): Dependable main unit gross

- capacity, winter or summer, whichever is smaller. The dependable capacity varies because the unit efficiency varies during the year due to cooling water b

temperature. variations. It is the gross electrical output as measured at the output terminals of the turbine generator during the most restrictive seasonal conditions (usually summer). Measured in watts, f'h O

MAXIMUM DEPENDABLE CAPACITY (Net): Gross maximum dependable capacity less the normal station service loads. Measured in watts.

1992lNFORMATION DIGEST 111

O'V MEGAWATT (MW): One million watts.

MEGAWATTHOUR (MWh): One million watthours.

NET SUMMER CAPABILITY: The steady hourly output, that generating equipment is expected to supply to system load exclusive of auxiliary power, as demonstrated by tests at the time of summer peak demand. Measured in watts.

~

PRESSURIZED-WATER REACTOR (PWR): A n ; tear reactor in which heat is transferred from the core to a heat exchanger via water kept under high pressure without boiling the water.

PRODUCTION EXPENSE: Production expenses are a component of generation expenses that includes costs associated with operation, maintenance, and fuel.

RADIOACTIVITY: The rate at which radioactive material emits radiation.

Measured in units of becquerels or disintegrations per second.

A SPENT NUCLEAR FUEL: Fuel that has been removed from a nuclear reactor V

because it can no longer sustain power production for economic or other reasons.

URANIUM FUEL FABRICATION FACILITY: A facility that (1) manufactures reactor fuel containing uranium for any of the following: (i) preparation of fuel materials; (ii) formation of fuel materials into desired shapes; (iii) application of protective cladding; (iv) recovery of scrap rnaterial; and (v) storage associated with such operations; or (2) conducts research and development activities.

URANIUM HEXAFLUORIDE PRODUCTION FACILITY: A facility that receives natural uranium in the form of ore concentrate; enriches it, either by gaseous diffusion or gas centrifuge methods; and converts it into uranium hexafluoride.

WATT: The electrical unit of power. The rate of energy transfer equivalent to I ampere flowing under a pressure _of I volt at unity power factor.
