Improving Nuclear Plant Safety
When deadlines, budgets, and installation environment are constrained, our modular SBO installations offer product completed in a controlled factory environment and installed at site within a few days. This sets a new benchmark in terms of deployment velocity and simplicity of installation, minimizing site works and on-site disruption.
One such installation was implemented at the Dukovany Nuclear Power Plant in the Czech Republic. See how Caterpillar manufactured, delivered, and installed a modular, fully integrated, post-Fukushima SBO solution in less than 12 months.
With the most extensive product range in the industry and comprehensive nuclear knowledge, the Caterpillar team is equipped to provide precise solutions when:
- Replacing aging nuclear power plant generators
- Maintaining an existing system
- Designing and installing an entirely new fleet
Across the broad spectrum of nuclear power applications:
- Emergency diesel generators (EDGs) - An immediate backup power source to any reactor
- Station Black Out units (SBOs) - Responding to complete power loss
- Mobile power containers on trailers – Offsite and crisis response units acting as the ultimate source of power
