Title: Commercial US plants with more than one simulator
Post by: Nuclear Renaissance on Nov 26, 2009, 11:43

Saw a recent article that said DC Cook finished a second simulator. Are there other US sites that have the benefit of a second simulator? Any DC Cook folks have a ballpark figure for what that 2nd simulator cost?

I am no expert on this subject just an observer, but I know a plant here in the south has begun construction on its #2 simulator for the new reactors they are building.  Not sure if thats what you are talking about.  Sorry if its not.
