🛫 Are you travelling abroad this summer? Don't forget your passport! 👮♀ You will also need a passport to enter the nuclear sector. That's why Tractebel has developed the "Quality Passport" initiative to help bring newcomers into the nuclear supply chain. ⚛ The initiative helps SMEs qualify to become nuclear suppliers. The nuclear industry would benefit from expanding its supplier base. However, obtaining a compliant Quality Management System certification for the nuclear industry can be cumbersome and expensive. It discourages suppliers from offering their services to nuclear customers. 🛂 To overcome this hurdle, the “Quality Passport” tool enables small and medium suppliers to assess what they need to do to comply with the nuclear industry’s quality assurance requirements. 📝 After completing an accessible questionnaire built for newcomers, you’ll discover exactly where your organisation stands today and how to plan your next steps. The app is built for quality assurance professionals and offered at no cost as part of our commitment to support the nuclear supply chain worldwide. 💻 Try it NOW online: https://lnkd.in/e7dxQRM8 #EngineeringaCarbonNeutralFuture #nuclearindustry #quality #nuclearsafety #supplychain #certification Ana Lara Rodrigo Juliana Kretzer ARTURO SUAREZ REALES

🎉 South Africa's Koeberg Nuclear Power Station Unit 1 will operate for 20 more years! The South African safety authority has granted Eskom Holdings SOC Ltd, the nuclear operator, a license to extend the reactor's lifetime. ⚛ Since 2014, Tractebel has provided the operator with engineering support to help upgrade the Koeberg nuclear plant. And our experts played a role in the obtention of the National Nuclear Regulator's green light! Our engineers carried out studies to update regulatory binding documents related to the long-term operation. 👩💼 👷♂️ In 2014, our engineers defined the specifications for the replacement of both units' steam generators. Since 2015, they have provided Owner’s Engineering support services for this project. In 2022, Tractebel signed a contract with the operator that includes our company in a panel of suppliers until 2025. Since then, our engineers have reviewed and updated the secondary heat balance validation tool and the plant thermal performance model. 📈 🔗 Link to the full story in the first comment. 🌍 Nuclear energy accounts for around 6% of the total electricity production in South Africa. To move away from fossil fuels, nuclear power is one of the options chosen by the government to reduce GHG emissions while securing the electricity supply.
