Discussion The NRC is developing new guidance to update replacement energy cost estimates for both short- and long-term nuclear power plant outages. The new guidance document, NUREG–2242, ‘‘Replacement Energy Cost Estimates for Nuclear Power Plants: 2020–2030,’’ when finalized, updates and replaces the information contained within NUREG/CR–4012, Volume 4, ‘‘Replacement Energy Costs for Nuclear Electricity-Generating Units in the United States: 1997–2001,’’ and NUREG/CR–6080, ‘‘Replacement Energy, Capacity, and Reliability Costs for Permanent Nuclear Reactor Shutdowns’’ (ADAMS Accession Nos. ML20073J435 and ML20076F500, respectively). Replacement energy costs are estimated for the U.S. electricity wholesale market regions with nuclear electricity-generating units over the 2020–2030 study period. These estimates were developed to assist the NRC in evaluating proposed regulatory actions that (1) require safety modifications that might necessitate temporary reactor outages and (2) reduce the potential for extended outages resulting from a severe reactor accident. Estimates were calculated using ASEA Brown Boveri’s PROMOD model and ICF’s Integrated Planning Model for North America. The model simulates dispatching a collection of generating units in merit order (i.e., lowest to highest incremental cost of dispatch) until the regional power demand is met. Each generating unit is characterized by the technology and fuel it uses to generate electricity, the unit’s heat rate, and the variable and fixed costs incurred in owning and operating the unit. To estimate the replacement energy cost, the study models a Reference Case, in which all operational nuclear power plants are generating, and an Alternative Case, in which a nuclear generating unit is taken offline so that the next unit in merit order is dispatched to replace the lost generation. The difference in market clearing prices between the two cases is the replacement energy cost. The resulting wholesale power price projections capture the dynamics and economics of the U.S. electricity markets, which provide short- and longterm replacement energy cost estimates on a market area basis. Factors that affect replacement energy costs, such as load growth, replacement sources of generation, fuel prices, air emission requirement outlooks, and seasonal variations were treated in the analysis. VerDate Sep<11>2014 22:22 Dec 17, 2020 Jkt 253001 On November 18, 2020, the NRC held a Category 3 public meeting (ADAMS Accession No. ML20336A181) to discuss the updated replacement energy cost estimates. The NRC appreciates feedback received from the November 18, 2020 public meeting and will consider comments received during the public comment period when developing the final NUREG–2242. After Commission approval and publication of the final NUREG–2242, the NRC plans to develop an appendix to NUREG/BR–0058, Revision 5, ‘‘Regulatory Analysis Guidelines of the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission,’’ (ADAMS Accession No. ML19261A278) to provide guidance for applying the replacement energy cost estimates. Dated: December 15, 2020. For the Nuclear Regulatory Commission. John R. Tappert, Director, Division of Rulemaking, Environmental, and Financial Support, Office of Nuclear Materials Safety and Safeguards.
