Paks Nuclear Power Plant
2
Paks NPP
Four VVER-440/213 type reactors
Commissioned in 1983, 84, 86, 87, designed for 30 years
Six-loop, horizontal steam-generators
Provides cca. 40% of domestic electric energy production
Load factor – overall: 80-90%
Power increase in two steps to 500-510 MWe completed
LTO to 50 ys is underway

The first steps towards a new NPP
30 March 2009
Act CXVI of 1996 on Atomic Energy 7. § (2) Preliminary consent in principle of the Parliament shall be required for the commencement of preparatory actions for the construction of a new nuclear facility or radioactive waste repository, or for the expansion of an existing nuclear power plant with an additional unit containing nuclear reactors.

Lessons learned: SLE programme
No major obstacle for later licensing 315 findings and 101 further comments Programme follow up
Regular progress reports Special emphasis: maintenance
effectiveness monitoring, AMPs, TLAAs Specific technical issues
scoping (system boundaries), replacement of secondary piping containing copper, service cycle numbers, thermal stratification, primary piping support problems, carbon steel collectors remained in the steam generators

Competent environmental co-authority procedure
Modification of other documents (EP, TS, FSAR etc.)

Lessons learned during review of license application
Many TLAAs were not real TLAAs, the scope was wider than in any other known international examples
In many case, a one-time review could not be possible
Review was mainly focused on safety class 1 components

Lessons with SLE licensing
Most problematic areas
Introduction of maintenance rule
Equipment qualification
DB reconstruction strength calculations
Several supplements and parallel procedures
1 year regulatory procedure (15.12.11-15.12.12)
21000 pages + supplements (over 50000)
25 inspectors, at least 750 inspector-days
Impossible to be overviewed by a single person
