Susquehanna Nuclear Drastically Reduces Costs and Duration of Outages with STO Execution
Key Takeaways
⇨ Susquehanna Nuclear significantly reduced the duration and costs of outages by implementing STO Execution for better schedule management.
⇨ The new system improved data accuracy and enabled real-time updates, leading to increased efficiency and decision-making capabilities.
⇨ Training for the outage management team on the new system fostered a culture of ownership and accountability across the organisation.
Susquehanna Nuclear, an affiliate of Talen Energy responsible for a 2,500 MW nuclear facility, identified a need to upgrade their work management processes during critical maintenance outages. They encountered challenges with accessing real-time schedule data, ineffective communication during outages, and burdensome paper-based scheduling updates, all of which were causing inefficiencies and increasing outage durations and costs. By integrating STO Execution and Maxavera solutions from Prometheus Group, Susquehanna Nuclear was able to vastly improve communication, increase transparency, and facilitate real-time data updates. These strategic changes led to a marked 13% improvement in outage duration, a one-hour reduction in shift turnovers, and halved the time spent in coordination meetings, thereby streamlining the entire outage process.
