It’s called the Hive System and Westinghouse claims it will drive improved cost and scheduling through the entire reactor lifecycle from design, licensing, manufacturing, construction and operations.
With the Hive System, customers gain access to proprietary knowledge pioneered by Westinghouse engineers and data scientists via a secure system infrastructure and software.
The Hive System will help customers optimise maintenance planning and inspections and ensure operational teams receive the right information at the right moment.
The capabilities feature a cutting-edge bertha Nuclear Large Language Model AI System named in honor of Bertha Lamme – the first woman in the US to receive a mechanical engineering degree and the first female engineer hired by Westinghouse.
The bertha System includes tuned and trained models, methods and tools that can be applied to many different use cases.
Lou Martinez Sancho, Westinghouse chief technology officer and executive vice president of R&D commented in a statement: “Westinghouse will leverage the Hive System to build customized solutions with our clients. Use cases include streamlining preventive plant maintenance and nuclear fuel safety, manufacturing and optimization applications.”
