License Renewal Application Employment and Land Requirements Calculation Package Employment and Land Requirements for Alternatives to Byron Units I and 2 and Braidwood Units I and 2 This discussion supports the alternatives analysis in Chapter 7 of the Environmental Report.

Spreadsheets were used to estimate (1) the number of full time employees needed for construction and operation of hypothetical coal- and gas-fired and nuclear electric generation units that could be built to provide the same net generating capacity as the existing units (rounded up to 2,400 megawatts electric (MWe) to be the same for both Byron and Braidwood), (2) the amount of land required for a variety of alternative electric generation technologies (e.g. coal- and gas- fired electric generation units, nuclear, hydropower, solar photovoltaic, solar thermal, wind, and geothermal) that could provide approximately the same net generating capacity as the existing units. For the coal- and gas-fired alternatives the net generating capacity was based on available standard-size units (four 600 MW units for coal and six 400 MW units for gas).

All estimates are based on data from recent studies and projects constructed within the past eight years. The available data was normalized by determining the amount per MW for each alternative technology. To estimate the number of employees or amount of land needed, the analyst inputs the size (in MW) of the alternative technology into the spreadsheet. The spreadsheet multiplies the size of the plant by the amount per MW and enters the result in a summary table. Figure 1 is the summary table from the spreadsheet. Figure 2 shows the calculations for the gas-fired alternative. Figure 3 show the calculations for the pulverized coal-fired alternative. Figure 4 shows the calculations for the new nuclear power alternative. Figure 5 shows the land requirement calculations for renewable alternatives (e.g., hydropower, solar, wind, and geothermal technologies).
