SMR Perspectives Design & Safety Features of SMART Current (licensing) Status Summary
SMART
SMR- Perspectives
Small & Medium Reactors (SMR) offer Several Advantages
Enable enhanced safety features (robustness) - Easier implementation of passive safety features Suitable for isolated or small electrical grids Lower capital cost per unit - Small initial investment and short construction period reduces financial risks - Makes nuclear energy feasible for more utilities and energy suppliers Multi-purpose application (co-generation flexibilities) Just-in-time capacity addition, Short construction time - Enable gradual capacity increase to meet electric demand growth
Many realizable SMR concepts proposed are based on the LWR technology and reflection of the past experiences
By eliminating the cause of accidents (initiators), instead of controlling
accidents (ex. DBAs) Integral PWR fits into these logical requirements
