Industrial Internet of Things in Nuclear

Industrial Internet of Things systems can either be used to replace current legacy systems, which are lacking spare parts or add enhanced redundancy in monitoring the equipment operations.

This study reveals that the Nordic nuclear power plants are not yet using Industrial Internet of Things solutions very much because they have been built in the time before the digitalization era. Despite of the doubts to bring modern technologies for Industrial Internet of Things into the old nuclear power plants, which might interfere with the legacy I&C systems, there is the desire to adopt the new technology with applicable solutions into use.
