Topics
* SNC Perspective on Advanced Reactors
* Advanced Reactor Demonstration Project - DOE award for risk reduction
* Approach to licensing (Licensing Modernization Project and guidance)
Slide 2
 
SNC Perspective on Advanced Reactors Develop and demonstrate high potential advanced nuclear options that can provide the best value to the company & customers RIGHT TECHNOLOGY
* Provide the backbone of a net zero economy - clean electricity, heat, hydrogen
* Address safety & sustainability RIGHT TIMELINE
* Support decarbonization commitments & demands
* Replace potential retirements RIGHT COST
* Competitive with natural gas combined cycle with post-combustion carbon capture and solar with battery BEST VALUE
* Grow revenue in a rate neutral way
* Be options positive - expand the market past electricity Slide 3
