OVERVIEW |
From the standpoints of administration of nuclear power plants in line with the deregulation of power utilities and the worldwide appreciation of the crude-oil price and global warming, the social environment surrounding their administration in recent years has been getting ever tougher in terms of the need to reappraise nuclear power generation and improve its capacity utilization. Moreover, as a result of the planned introduction of new inspection systems in 2008, it is predicted that operation information management and inspection-work-information management will have to be further upgraded. On top of this social situation, maintenance and repair work will be required to reach higher levels of efficiency, safety, and upgrading than have so far been attained. Based on the abundant results achieved by the "work management system" (which underwent system renewal last year) spanning the ten years since it started operation at the Shimane Nuclear Power Station of the Chugoku Electric Power Co., Inc., a concept called an "on-site maintenance support solution" for handling advanced maintenance work of next-generation plants is presently under construction and testing. From now onwards, Hitachi intends to propose implementation of this solution at a wide range of power-generation companies.
