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.

The Future of Small Modular Reactors

2017
The small size and the modular structure of the SMRs make them suitable to small electric grids. For this reason, they are a good option for locations that cannot accommodate large-scale nuclear power plants. The modular construction process associated to SMRs would make them more affordable by reducing capital costs and construction times.

Benefits of Small Modular Reactors

2017
Many countries are moving swiftly to develop and commercialise SMRs as they offer an assortment of benefits that make them attractive to utilities and investors. They have the potential to solve challenges faced by large nuclear power reactors such as cost overruns and construction delays risks, safety, and proliferation concerns.

Advanced Reactor Design and Small Modular Reactors

2017
The main class of commercial reactors built from the 1960s to the 1980s is today generally called second-generation reactors. These have been succeeded by a range of third-generation reactor designs, a few of which have been built or are under construction.
