Flexible fuel strategy for OPAL approved

Today, our nuclear regulator ARPANSA approved ANSTO's request to implement a "flexible fuel management strategy". 

 

In the future, this will allow OPAL to operate to a fixed calendar schedule, even following unplanned reactor shutdowns, and thereby provide more predictable scheduling for our users. 

 

We send our congratulations and thanks to George Braoudakis, Greg Storr, and the whole team in Reactor Operations, for pushing this improvement through.
