Creators
Description
This annex provides details of French efforts towards converting a nuclear power plant that is optimized for baseload operation to perform flexible operation. This case study1 illustrates the experience gained in the design changes and for operation, including the considerations in decision making for flexible operation of nuclear generating units and establishing specific capabilities for flexibility in baseload optimized plants by design and operational modifications.
