Fortum’s View of Future EnergySupplyNuclear Science and Technology Symposium (NST2016), 2-3 Nov 2016Tiina Tuomela, EVP Generation, Fortum
Energy sector is under transformation
2
• In the future– Energy is produced more and
more with unlimited renewableresources
– Production is distributed, andproducers and consumers rolesare partly overlapping
– Importance of flexible powergeneration increasing
– Digitalization brings newopportunities
Forecasted investments in powergeneration globally between 2015-2040(Source: IEA World Energy Outlook, New Policies Scenario)
Nuclear capacity will increase globally
• 59 reactors under constructionglobally, out of which 20 are in China*
• About 40 countries is assessingnuclear new-build while threecountries decided to abandonnuclear**
• Nuclear power generation is expectedto grow also in all IEA scenarios by2040**

Global power generation capacity retirements andadditions in the IEA New Policies Scenario, 2015-2040**
+148 GW
Also in Europe nuclear remain long a significant part of theenergy system even though RES increases
1. RES-E targets: 2014 realisation 28%, 2020 target 36% and 2030 target about 45% corresponding to 37% total RES target.

In Nordic nuclear will also have important role
• Nuclear benefits– CO2-free– Stable and predictable production
• Nuclear challenges– Limited flexibility– Cost competitiveness, complicated long-
lasting construction projects

Nordic power system is dominated byhydro (~60%) and nuclear (~20%)
*) Normal annual Nordic hydrogeneration 200 TWh,variation +/- 40 TWh.

Market outlook and development of renewable energy sourcesforces also nuclear industry to renew
• Need to develop more standardizedplant designs, equipment andcomponents
• Promote development towardsharmonized licensing over differentmarkets and countries
• Utilize more best practices also betweendifferent industries
• Fasten technology development throughR&D, product development and piloting(passive safety systems / simplicity, smallmodular reactors, etc)

Nuclear technology outlook – several alternative trends
Economy of scaleComplex projects, large investmentsBeneficial when large amount of powerneeded (e.g. China) → serial deployment
Economy of serial productionManageable projects, stepwise investmentsSimplified, standardized conceptsInternationally harmonized regulatory approach

*Requires changes to current licensing frameworkand active participation to plant design work
VVER – Russia, AP1000 – USA, CAP1400 – Chinese version of Westinghouse’s AP1000SMR – Small Modular Reactors (several concepts)
