IN THE INDUSTRY

AREVA TN announced this week that Exelon Nuclear awarded the company a contract to supply 30 additional NUHOMS HSM-H used fuel storage modules at the Nine Mile Point Nuclear Station in New York. According to the company, AREVA will construct the horizontal storage modules onsite to reduce the cost of transporting the materials. Nine Mile Point currently has 40 units that AREVA previously installed in 2011. “Thanks to the expertise and innovative spirit of our teams, we are able to offer Exelon a more economical used fuel storage solution by casting the modules at the Nine Mile Point site,” said Greg Vesey, senior vice president of AREVA TN Americas, in a statement.
