Risk-Informed Initiating Events Accident Response, INL/RPT-22-68669 | 37169 | | 00 - Risk-Informed Initiatives and Applications | Opportunities exist to make plants’ regulatory compliance processes more efficient which can be done by decreasing reliance on deterministic and prescriptive approaches and expansion of the use of risk-informed and performance-based approaches to demonstrate reactor safety. In this report, we researched possibilities of economic benefits potentially available from the application of concepts associated with a modernized regulatory framework developed for advanced reactors to the existing light water reactors. As the result, we have identified multiple areas of existing plant operations where modernization of compliance activities can offer substantial economic benefits. Additional research is needed to demonstrate these expected benefits using case studies conducted in collaboration with utilities. | Opportunities exist to make plants’ regulatory compliance processes more efficient which can be done by decreasing reliance on deterministic and prescriptive approaches and expansion of the use of risk-informed and performance-based approaches to demonstrate reactor safety.
