at entergy nuclear, our mission is clear — to engage every employee in our quest to continually learn and improve. by reaching deeper into our organization, the company aims to involve as many voices as possible in ideation and initiative implementation.
one example of engaged employees is kyle lanoue, a mechanical maintenance repairman at river bend station in st. francisville, la. lanoue recently contributed an idea during a brainstorming session to utilize a tool from the electric power research institute —a 3d integral viewer of the station’s terry turbine, a vital component used to drive pumps that deliver coolant to the steam generators. this innovative resource will enhance our just-in-time training and will be a vital tool during periodic refueling outages.
the 3d viewer provides a detailed visual representation of how the turbine disassembles, breaking down each step so that team members can understand their upcoming tasks. this tool is particularly beneficial during the maintenance walk-down process, as it enables users to roll over actual bolts to check stud lengths and sizes, ensuring all work is performed accurately and efficiently.
“it gives you a full idea of what you plan to see before getting into the work activity in the field. this helps us perform the work activity safely and efficiently,” lanoue said. “you can come in here, look through the work steps and say, ‘i want to accomplish this when i go out there.’”
“this is a testament to what can happen when we listen to our workforce and support them by putting into action what would help them do their jobs better, more safely and more reliably while adhering to our schedules,” said phil hansett, river bend station site vice president.
