Title: The benefits of digital in the nuclear industry
Background: a nuclear power plant.

1 – Security and prevention
Background: inside a factory, followed by a video inspection of a tank with the help of hololens glasses.

Digital helps in better preventing safety issues, protecting intervention personnel, and implementing real-time preventive solutions to minimize the risk of accidents.

2 – Planning 
Background: sequences of handling technologies allowing planning: software applications, 3D simulations on interactive screen. Overview on a tablet and a person scrolling on a phone.

Digital can assist in long-term energy production planning by using predictive models to optimize production and forecast future energy requirements.

3 – Environmental Monitoring
Background: two operators wearing a hard hat and safety glasses. They are facing a control-command screen. The first trains his colleague about its use.

Digital enables real-time monitoring of the environmental impacts of nuclear energy production.

4 – Optimisation of production
Background: a plant chimney releasing water vapour and reflecting on a water arm.

Digital technology allows for the collection and analysis of real-time data to optimize nuclear energy production, thereby improving the performance and efficiency of power plants.

5 – Cost reduction
Background: four nuclear power plants stacks releasing water vapour.

Implementing digital solutions can help reduce operating and maintenance costs of nuclear power plants while enhancing facility reliability.

6 – Waste management
Background: sunset over 7 cooling chimneys of a power plant.

Digital technologies can be used to improve the management of nuclear waste, by allowing remote monitoring of storage sites and optimizing treatment procedures.

7 – Technological advances
Background: sequences that highlight technological advances developed by Framatome: uses of augmented reality glasses, tablets in factories, augmented simulations.

Digital makes it possible to integrate innovative technologies in nuclear power plants, such as artificial intelligence, virtual reality, and augmented reality to further improve the performance and safety of installations.
