French nuclear equipment manufacturer Framatome has been awarded a contract to modernise the instrumentation and control (I&C) systems at the Leibstadt nuclear power station in Switzerland, a statement by the company said.
According to the statement, the project is part of an ongoing investment strategy to ensure Leibstadt’s long-term operation until at least 2045. The statement did not say how much the contract was worth.
The I&C system in a nuclear power plant monitors critical parameters and enables operators to control equipment and systems during normal and emergency operations. It ensures the plant runs safely, efficiently and responds automatically to any abnormal conditions.
