The 15th annual gathering of the ETAP Nuclear Utility User Group (NUUG) took place June 16-19, 2015 in Irvine, CA, where 53 members from 25 companies and 22 nuclear plants shared presentations on nuclear plant electrical power system analysis.
The ETAP NUUG has become the largest group in the U.S. that regularly meets to discuss nuclear plant power system analysis. “Recent events in the nuclear industry have emphasized the important role a power system analysis can play in determining the best solution to various electrical system failures”, explained ETAP NUUG Chairman, Mark Bowman of Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA). “Our conference attendance has increased in recent years,” noted ETAP NUUG Technical Chairman, Paul Colaianni of Duke Energy, “This is partly due to the nuclear power industry’s strong safety culture, which fosters the need for our members to work together to increase overall plant safety margins by continually improving our power system modeling and analysis techniques.”
