Licensing small modular reactors

Energy, 2013
Abstract Small modular reactor designs with power levels of less than 300 MWe are being developed in several countries. While there are several potential advantages with these reactors, they are also confronted with multiple challenges. Important among these challenges is to have these new reactor designs licensed by national regulatory bodies ...

The Role of Small Modular Reactors in Decarbonization

Climate and Energy, 2022
Decarbonization efforts underway to meet climate mitigation goals worldwide are forcing regulators, policymakers, electric grid operators, and parts of the scientific community to reconsider the role of nuclear power in the transition. Many proponents of nuclear power argue that nuclear technologies can play a role in advancing a clean energy economy ...

Small Modular Reactor

Small Modular Reactors (SMRs) are safer, more flexible, & more affordable than big reactors. They are becoming popular as an affordable, scalable, & adaptable substitute for conventional large-scale nuclear power. SMRs are positioned to be a key component of low-carbon, sustainable energy systems due to growing international interest & ...

Briefing: Small modular reactors

Proceedings of the Institution of Civil Engineers - Energy, 2013
The worldwide need for energy, and particularly energy that does not generate carbon dioxide, has led to the possibility of nuclear reactors being installed in countries that previously have not used them. In many of these countries the electrical grid system is limited and would not be robust enough for the large power reactors currently under ...

Small Modular Nuclear Reactors

2018
There is growing UK and international interest in using 'small modular nuclear reactors' (SMRs) to generate electricity, and the UK Government announced a number of measures to support SMR development in the 2018 Nuclear Sector Deal. Stakeholders suggest that, compared with conventional nuclear reactors, SMRs could offer cost savings to operators and ...

Small Modular Reactor Design Considerations

Volume 3: Design and Analysis, 2011
With growing worries about climate change and greenhouse gas emissions, issues and risks associated with hydrocarbon supplies, many government agencies are working to push the development of licensing for Small Modular Reactors (SMRs). SMRs are part of a new generation of nuclear power plants being designed all over the world.
