We are pleased to be shortlisted by Vattenfall, as part of Vattenfall’s ongoing evaluation of reactor technology. Our boiling water reactor technology has been operating for decades in the Nordics and the BWRX-300 small modular reactor, a 10th generation design, is an ideal solution as Sweden looks to new #nuclear to satisfy a growing demand for electricity while decarbonizing industry and meeting net-zero goals. https://lnkd.in/emTASWpb
When the SMR propaganda is over and people realize that economics matters, I can help uprate the BWRX-300, making for an more economic increase in capacity as has been done in the US over the last 30 years. I can put recirculation pumps in or near the core with no moving parts and no electricity, greatly increasing flow through the core and increasing the response rate to transients like a powers and down powers for demand or source following. I can simplify the feed and condensate pumps and also make them non-electrical reducing the need for power after shutdown, while eliminating condensate polishers and feed water heat exchangers that require the polishers, still providing condensating fee water heating with the same pumps that I mentioned that can go in the car with no power or moving parts but steam driven by condensate drains and the highest pressure ones from bypass Steam from before the turbine.
When you are the best, it is hard for not to be on the short list! This is a great news and if they Select GEH, it will be a win for everyone.
Great news from our #NuclearPower business. #FutureOfEnergy
Good News! 😊
Well done!
Excellent news!
Congratulations!
