Small Modular Reactor (SMR) Nuclear Technology
Fluor is a majority investor in NuScale Power, a small modular reactor (SMR) technology company.
Safe -
NuScale's passive safety systems, using natural circulation for emergency feedwater cooling, eliminates the need for external emergency power.
System in submerged in below-ground water pool in earthquake resistant building, making it seismically robust.
Modular - Production of modular component at U.S. and international facilities helps lower costs and reduce lead times and flexible for changing demand volumes.
Scalable - Power generating capacity can be increased as needed by installing additional NuScale modules.
Reliable
- Designed for baseload production with capacity factors in excess of 90%.
Off-the-shelf Technologies - Minimizes the need for additional research and development.
Simplified design, moving the primary coolant (water) to natural circulation, eliminating the need for primary coolant pumps and external power.
Small electric grid application - The small size allows for applications that cannot accommodate large-scale plants.
