The BWRX-300 is a smaller evolution of an earlier GE Hitachi reactor design, note the Economic Simplified Boiling Water Reactor (ESBWR) design and utilizing components of the operational Advanced boiling water reactor (ABWR) reactor. [1] Boiling water reactors are nuclear technology that use ordinary light water as a nuclear reactor coolant ...
The OPR-1000 is a South Korean-designed two-loop 1000 MWe PWR Generation II nuclear reactor, developed by KHNP and KEPCO. [1] The OPR-1000 was originally designated as the Korean Standard Nuclear Power Plant (KSNP), and was re-designated as the OPR-1000 in 2005 for foreign sales. [2]
A high-temperature gas-cooled reactor (HTGR) is a type of gas-cooled nuclear reactor which uses uranium fuel and graphite moderation to produce very high reactor core output temperatures. [1] All existing HTGR reactors use helium coolant. The reactor core can be either a "prismatic block" (reminiscent of a conventional reactor core) or a ...
Each reactor is targeted to cost £50m. [5] The design is for a 10 MWt / 4 MWe [a] micro-small modular reactor. [2] The design is graphite-moderated, helium-cooled and based on high temperature reactor (HTR) concepts some of which were pioneered from the Dragon reactor, while the fuel block is based on the earlier Fort St. Vrain reactor.

As major tech firms, including Google and Amazon, turn to advanced nuclear technologies known as small modular reactors (SMRs) in hopes of powering their AI ambitions, skeptics are raising ...
The Rolls-Royce SMR, also known as the UK SMR, [1] is a small modular reactor (SMR) design being developed by the Rolls-Royce (RR) company in the United Kingdom.. The company has been given financial support by the UK Government to develop its design.
The HTR-PM is a high-temperature gas-cooled (HTGR) pebble-bed reactor. While the German AVR and THTR-300, operating from 1969 to 1988, were the first pebble-bed reactors and operated at similar temperatures, the HTR-PM is the first such design using modular construction and the second small modular reactor, following Russia's Akademik Lomonosov floating plant in 2019.
An Ohio couple who tortured their five adopted sons in “dungeon”-like conditions and deprived them of food and water, among other abuses, has been sentenced after taking a plea deal. On Friday ...
