Introduction

Today's nuclear power plant operators focus on safety and efficiency - finding ways to shorten reactor down times, increase system reliability and address obsolescence, along with managing ever increasing maintenance issues associated with ageing equipment. Safety and reliability considerations place demanding requirements on instrumentation and control (I&C) architectures. Monitoring critical systems and implementing proactive solutions is essential to success.

Rolls-Royce provides I&C, monitoring, 1E safety-classified and non-safety systems and services for nuclear reactors of all types, from several hundred kW research reactors to the largest nuclear power plants worldwide.

Our integrated solutions are based on technology that combines hardware, electronic and software components to produce a unique digital I&C platform for both new nuclear power plants and the refurbishment and obsolescence management in existing plants. All comply with the strictest international nuclear standards and regulations. Our unrivalled knowledge of plant design and operations means our solutions fit smoothly within our customers' processes.
