Generation Nuclear Power Power Delivery & Utilization Environment • Advanced Coal Plants, Carbon Capture and Storage • Combustion Turbines • Environmental Controls • Generation Planning • Major Component Reliability • Operations and Maintenance • Renewables • Advanced Nuclear Technology • Chemistry, Low-Level Waste and Radiation Management • Equipment Reliability • Fuel Reliability • Instrumentation and Control • Material Degradation/Aging • Nondestructive Evaluation and Material Characterization • Risk and Safety Management • Used Fuel and High-Level Waste Management • Transmission Lines and Substations • Grid Operations and Planning • Distribution • Energy Utilization • Cross Cutting Technologies • Air Quality • Global Climate Change • Land and Groundwater • Occupational Health and Safety • T&D Environmental Issues • Water and Ecosystems EPRI Portfolio Spans the Entire Electricity Sector

3. Advanced Nuclear Technology (ANT) • New nuclear power plants must overcome a number of regulatory, economic, technical, and social challenges prior to becoming a reality • Program efforts focused around: • Facilitating standardization across the new fleet • Transferring technology to new plant designs • Ensuring top plant performance from start of operations • Reduce overall deployment risk and uncertainty • Supporting development of advanced nuclear plants and associated strategic initiatives

4. Information Handover Guide The Handover Guide published in December 2009 (1019221). Developing generic data requirements. New Nuclear Plant XML Equipment Schemas Working with FIATECH, Hydraulic Institute, NIST and vendors to conduct a pump procurement pilot to determine nuclear specific fields. Configuration Management CM For New Nuclear published in April 2011 (1022684). QA for Design and Modeling Software and V&V for Quality Software Quality Control of the 2D / 3D design and modeling software and other associated databases and software in a commercial grade dedication method prescribed by NQA-1 Achieving New Nuclear Configuration Management - Tasks

5. How is the CM process impacted by leveraging Automation? Current Generation Nuclear Plants Plant Documentation Physical Plant Must Conform As-built information must be accurately reflected on plant documentation. Next Generation Nuclear Plants Virtual Plant Data Centric Automation Plant Documentation Physical Plant Must Conform As-built information must be accurately entered into the Information Repository which then produces plant documentation.

6. INFORMATION HANDOVER AND INTEROPERABILITY Design Procure Construct Startup Ops VENDOR EPC Data Exchanges OWNER/OPERATOR SUPPLIERS

7. DATA INTEROPERABILITY - What is ISO 15926? A Global Common Model Owner Requirements Owner/Operator Data Repository Vendor EPC Exchange

8. One source of controlled data with multiple attributes that is consumed by multiple applications and changed from one application. Data quality (graded) that can be confidently used by all levels of applications by specified milestones. Data and Document Relationships that will build a design basis taxonomy to support configuration control of changes and operability determinations of the plant. Ability to manage as-designed, as-specified, as-built, and as-tested configurations of the plant. Access to data and documents via the 2D and 3D Models Electronic Delivery of Compliant, “as-built” Information for Smarter Operation and Maintenance EPRI DESIRED END RESULTS

10. Summary • Learning from the Past • Current Conditions • Going Forward • CM Life Cycle • Developing the CM Program • CM Taxonomy • Requirements Management • SSC Information Repository • CM Guidance Documents

11. Learning from the Past • CM WAS NOT INITIALLY FACTORED INTO THE CURRENT GENERATION OF NUCLEAR PLANTS • UTILITIES DIDN’T UNDERSTAND THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN REQUIREMENTS, CONFIGURATION INFORMATION AND THE PHYSICAL PLANT • CONFIGURATION INFORMATION WAS MOSTLY DOCUMENT CENTRIC • EXAMPLES OF CM DISCONNECTS BEGAN TO APPEAR: • IE BULLETIN 79-14 • SALEM ATWS TRIP BREAKER PROBLEM • DAVIS BESSE LOSS OF FEEDWATER EVENT • MILLSTONE – 10CFR50.54(F)

12. Current Conditions • 10CFR52 INTRODUCES NEW CONCEPTS AND TERMINOLOGY FOR NEW NUCLEAR FACILITIES • CERTIFIED DESIGN • DESIGN CONTROL DOCUMENTS (DCDS) • COMBINED OPERATING LICENSE APPLICATION (COLA) • ITAAC • OWNER/OPERATORS MUST HAVE CM & QA PROGRAM IN PLACE AT RECEIPT OF COL • TECHNOLOGY HAS MOVED AHEAD • INTEROPERABILITY • VIRTUAL PLANT • XML SCHEMAS • WORKFLOW MANAGEMENT

13. Going Forward • CM PLANNING NEEDS TO BEGIN FROM TIME OF FACILITY CONCEPTION • THE OWNER/OPERATOR MUST “CHAMPION” CM BY DEVELOPING A STRATEGY/PLAN TO DEFINE THE PROGRAM • CONFIGURATION INFORMATION NEEDS TO BE COLLECTED AS SOON AS PRELIMINARY DESIGN AND SITE STUDIES BEGIN • REQUIREMENTS NEED TO BE IDENTIFIED AND HOW/WHERE THEY ARE SATISFIED DOCUMENTED • THE VIRTUAL PLANT CONCEPT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED • EXCELLENT TIME TO DEFINE AND DOCUMENT MARGINS

14. Virtual Plant A computer-based information model environment formed by computer technology consisting of 2D and 3D (dimensional), 4D (time), 5D (cost), 6D (material) modeling along with data, databases, and electronic document sources. DesignRequire-ments FacilityConfigInfo PhysicalConfig

16. Establishing the CM Program • DEFINE THE CM PROGRAM SCOPE • SSCS • INFORMATION/DATA • PROCESSES • RESPONSIBILITIES AND INTERFACES • DEFINITIONS AND TERMINOLOGY • APPLY A GRADED APPROACH • DEVELOP CM AWARENESS AND TRAINING • INTEGRATE WITH CORRECTIVE ACTION PROGRAM • ESTABLISH PERFORMANCE INDICATORS
