| LWRS researchers in collaboration with ORNL and Blue Wave AI Labs examined the capabilities, feasibility, and regulatory concerns of cloud computing in relation to meeting nuclear industry needs, specifically for achieving risk-informed predictive maintenance strategy. The technical viability of cloud computing was analyzed using data from a boiling-water reactor’s safety relief valve. | Assessment of Cloud-based Applications Enabling a Scalable Risk-informed Predictive Maintenance Strategy, INL/RPT-23-74696 | | 9/29/2023 | New Instrumentation and Control and Human System Interfaces and Capabilities | Risk-Informed Systems Analysis | |
| The LWRS Digitalization Project at INL seeks to leverage digital technologies to synthesize and transform work processes. We provide a state-of-the-art analysis of digitalized work processes in nuclear power and investigate ways in which researchers at INL and the nuclear industry can work together to identify what data to access, how to access it, what to do with the data, and most importantly, how to use the insights for decision-making across all levels within the business. | Digitalization Guiding Principles and Method for Nuclear Industry Work Processes, INL/RPT-23-74429 | | 9/29/2023 | New Instrumentation and Control and Human System Interfaces and Capabilities | Risk-Informed Systems Analysis | |
| The purpose and mission of the Integrated Operations for Nuclear Business Model and research effort at Light Water Reactors Sustainability (LWRS) Program is to identify and integrate technological and programmatic changes and modernizations to nuclear plant operations. These changes, called “work reduction opportunities,” are first advanced and integrated into the integrated operations for nuclear model then verified and explored further in applied ways with partnering utilities and plant sites. As the integrated operations for nuclear model gains structure, researchers actively seek to incorporate new work reduction opportunities as components to the existing work reduction opportunities suite from ongoing research within the LWRS Program. To achieve this, each pathway in the LWRS Program was assessed, and interviews conducted with each pathway lead to gather insights into current and future research and development efforts that could contribute to the creation of new work reduction activities. | Complete Evaluation of ION Cost Reduction Opportunities for LWRS Program Pathways, INL/RPT-23-74595 | | 9/27/2023 | New Instrumentation and Control and Human System Interfaces and Capabilities | Plant Modernization | |
| The report concludes by summarizing the overall effort and implications for utility modernization. The performance of the screening and TERA are discussed as well as the impact on the nuclear industry.

Through this research, we provide utilities with a valuable framework to optimize operations, reduce costs, and drive continuous process improvement. | Development of a Technical, Economic, and Risk Assessment Framework for the Evaluation of Work Reduction Opportunities, INL/RPT-23-74724 | | 9/27/2023 | New Instrumentation and Control and Human System Interfaces and Capabilities | Plant Modernization | |
| The purpose of this report is to communicate the next phase of research associated with the Integrated Operations for Nuclear (ION) business model advanced and detailed by the researchers who are part of the Light Water Reactor Sustainability (LWRS) Program. Previous reports detailed work-reduction opportunities and their potential impact on savings, operations and maintenance (O&M) cost reductions to domestic nuclear plants. Advancing the concept once again, researchers have developed and now tested a methodology for assessing a nuclear plant and developing a roadmap for implementation of ION. This report describes that process, which was completed with a domestic nuclear site partner. | Applying the ION Business Model to a Domestic Nuclear Plant: Assessment and Transformation Implementation Plan, INL/RPT-23-73942 | | 9/26/2023 | 03 Human & Technology Integration | Plant Modernization | |
| In this report we show in detail how the integration and reasoning from numeric and textual ER data elements is performed. First, we present the developed library of MBSE modelsthat focus on common NPP systems and assets. Then we show the development of computational methods designed to process and analyze numeric and textual ER data elements simultaneously. Here, we apply the developed computational methods on the circulating water system of an existing NPP. Our final considerations provide additional insights on further potential applications of these methods to support additional NPP decisions. | Development of Analysis Methods that Integrate Numeric and Textual Equipment Reliability Data, INL/RPT-23-74530 | | 9/16/2023 | 03 Human & Technology Integration | Risk-Informed Systems Analysis | |

| While the existing U.S. light-water reactors are highly reliable and safe and provide a significant proportion of carbon-free electricity, the cost of operating and maintaining them has become less competitive compared to other electricity generating sources. The reason for the gap in operating and maintenance costs can be attributed at least in part to the advent of new digital technologies that other electricity generating industries are currently using. Advanced capabilities, including digital instrumentation and control (I&C) systems, advanced automation and analytics, and a greater span of data integration (i.e., connectedness), across these nonnuclear plants have transformed the way work is performed and ultimately given them a competitive advantage in terms of the cost required for operating, maintaining, and supporting them. | Human and Technology Integration Evaluation of Advanced Automation and Data Visualization, INL/RPT-23-74346 | | 8/30/2023 | 03 Human & Technology Integration | Plant Modernization | |

| Historically, nuclear power plants have operated predominantly at or near full power, meaning that most of the data collected are in this operating regime. Therefore, data-driven anomaly detection methods that are developed using this data can perform well at full power operations. This presents a challenge when the power drops (referred to as a transient) and may result in false alarms due to the lack of historical data at those new power levels. The current approach to handling this challenge is to turn the anomaly detection algorithms off during transients, causing missed detections. This effort developed and tested multiple data-driven anomaly detection methods that can extend to transient conditions.
