Westinghouse to Revise Design of Ap1000 Reactor

Summary


Westinghouse Electric Co., Monroeville, said Tuesday it applied to regulators to revise the final design of its AP1000 nuclear reactor. The company requested U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission approval to modify the reactor design to reduce the cost and schedule for utilities to obtain a combined construction and operating license from the commission. Westinghouse said utilities are expected to apply for such licenses later this year. The design modifications would further standardize the AP1000 design, as well as incorporate measures to enhance reactor security and resistance to aircraft collisions. Westinghouse's AP1000 reactor design received the commission's design certification in December 2005.
