- Increased frequency of Systems, Structures, and Components (SSCs) degradations or failures in aging Light Water Reactors (LWRs)
- Uncertainties in safety margins historically based on engineering judgment
- Need for improved decision-making about LWR design, operation, and plant life extension

Greenhouse gas emissions & sustainability report data
Figures are as stated in the company's own report and may use different boundaries, units or methods (for example market-based vs location-based Scope 2), so compare with care.
📈 Emissions by Report Period
| Report period | Headline emissions figure reported |
|---|---|
| 2007-04 to 2008-01 | 157.1 MMtCO2e (2005) |
Each row is the headline figure extracted from a different report; scope coverage and methodology can change between years.
