Another commercial application will be the development of a system health monitoring product for nuclear power utilities. AMS will work to develop a product that can first be used for health monitoring on reactor power plant components and subsystems, with continued development focused on higher-level systems and, potentially, overall plant health monitoring. There is a demonstrated need for such systems in the existing commercial nuclear power fleet as well as the next generation designs that are now being considered. In addition, a potential commercial opportunity exists in the development of autonomous health monitoring systems for Small Modular Reactors (SMRs), which are now in the design phases.
