The reactor is proprietary molten salt reactor design that builds on two existing designs: the Denatured Molten Salt Reactor (DMSR) and Small Modular Advanced High Temperature Reactor (smAHRT). Both designs are from Oak Ridge National Laboratory. The key technology of the IMSR® is the integration of the primary reactor components, the ...
The small modular reactor (SMR) is a class of small nuclear fission reactor, designed to be built in a factory, shipped to operational sites for installation and then used to power buildings or other commercial operations. The term SMR refers to the size, capacity and modular construction. Reactor type and the nuclear processes may vary. Of the ...

Holtec is developing the SMR-160, an advanced light water reactor that can generate 160 MW of power. The first SMR-160s are scheduled to enter service around 2030, Holtec said.
Holtec, which is decommissioning the Oyster Creek nuclear plant, announced that Hyundai is joining a project to build a new type of nuclear reactor.
A diagram of a NuScale small modular reactor (SMR) NuScale reactors take 1% of the space of a conventional reactor and generate 77 MWe. [64] [65] [66] The design uses light water for cooling and power generation as in conventional nuclear plants. Water is heated by the nuclear core at the base of the reactor vessel.

All spent fuel was removed from the reactor vessel by January 1976, but the reactor still stands. [16] The licensee, Entergy, plans to decommission Unit 1 when Unit 2 is decommissioned. [17] Indian Point 2 and 3 are four-loop Westinghouse pressurized water reactors both of similar design. Units 2 and 3 were completed in 1974 and 1976, respectively.
