The establishment of the company was based on the April 2007 decision by the Japanese government to select Mitsubishi as the core company for FBR development. Expectations are for a demonstration reactor for launching by 2025 and a full commercial plant by 2050, and for FBRs to eventually supersede Light water reactor technology in Japan. [1]
GE and Hitachi have developed the world’s safest Boiling Water Reactors (BWRs) over 60 years, with 40 reactors operating in 5 countries. BWRs and Pressurized Water Reactors (PWRs) both use light water as coolant and steam source, but BWRs generate steam directly in the reactor core, while PWRs use a secondary loop to produce steam.

Candu Energy Inc. was created in 2011 when parent company SNC-Lavalin purchased the commercial reactor division of Atomic Energy of Canada Limited (AECL), along with the development and marketing rights to CANDU reactor technology. [1] [2] Candu Energy Inc. is located in Mississauga, Ontario, Canada. Candu Energy lists its main business lines as:
Nick Sciple: Google also investing in a small modular reactor design company, Kairos Power, and then also in the world of building new nuclear reactors just this week, Meta announced that they're ...
The core module of the ACP100 multi-purpose, small modular pressurized water reactor (PWR), also referred to as the Linglong One, is transferred to a ship on July 14, 2023, in Dalian, Liaoning ...
Shine Technologies (stylized as SHINE Technologies) is a private corporation based in Janesville, Wisconsin.The company applies nuclear fusion and advanced separation technologies across fields of critical need, including nondestructive testing, radiation hardening services for industrial and defense applications, and the production of radioisotopes, including n.c.a. lutetium-177 for cancer ...
The B&W mPower was a proposed small modular reactor designed by Babcock & Wilcox, and to be built by Generation mPower LLC, a joint venture of Babcock & Wilcox and Bechtel. It was a Generation III+ integral pressurized water reactor (light water reactor) concept. In March 2017, Bechtel withdrew from the joint venture and the project was ...
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. Heated water flows up the riser, then down over steam generators. As heat is ...
