  2. Fast Breeder Test Reactor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fast_Breeder_Test_Reactor

    In 1993, the reactor's power level was raised to 10.5 MW. In September 2002, fuel burn-up in the FBTR for the first time reached the 100,000 megawatt-days per metric ton uranium (MWd/MTU) mark. [citation needed] This is considered an important milestone in breeder reactor technology. On 7 March 2022 it attained the design power level of 40 MWt. [2]
