Lab projects that are relatively complex, with key issues including compliance (quality, safety, environment, permitting), difficulty in predicting the future (science, technology, sales forecasts), multiple stakeholders, and projects that require significant coordination during design and construction.. To solve this mounting challenge we need a solution that can deploy labs at speed..
The approach we took for this was to plan a time of iteration between process, engineering, systemisation, and business focused expertise, assessing the Last Responsible Moment for drawing this activity to a close.This would allow time for the Design Sprints to deliver the integrated design to the required definition at the end of the study..
The design sprints themselves were appropriately segmented, cognisant of the fact that the final sprint should be quicker as more of the outstanding questions would have been generically answered..Many of the deliverables (3.)could be sequenced traditionally and could be tracked.
The trick was that as far as possible they should be de-linked from Integration Strategy E.g.the fundamentals of a process P&ID or a Functional Specification are not linked to the scale of the process or its capacity..
The coordination of key interactions (4.)
was vital to have the full integrated design.Initially, our focus will be on the United States because the US is a large consumer of coal-based energy, and we are more familiar with the North American situation in terms of supply chains and regulations.
But this approach is designed to be rolled out world-wide and to attract customers and supply chain partners to realise coal plant refurbishments in other critical locations.Fourth generation nuclear reactors will likely be available by 2027, by which time the platform will be sufficiently developed to realise carbon savings at a massive scale by the end of this decade.
Alongside the massive deployment of renewables, the refurbishment of 2TWe of coal globally will make it possible for us to achieve the ambitious decarbonisation targets we need to achieve, to stop climate change..
