High level requirements for an IFE development program

Abstract

This White Paper lays out a framework to help guide the formulation of an IFE technology program that explicitly takes account of the needs of the end-user power plant design, construction, licensing, commissioning and operational phases. This viewpoint seeks to ensure that near-term decisions are consistent with the long-term goals, and seeks to minimize effort spent on developments that are incompatible with an integrated system solution.
