Nach jahrelangen Verzögerungen und Milliardenkosten sieht #Westinghouse nun einen gangbaren Weg, große #Atomkraftwerke wie den #AP1000 effizienter zu bauen.

Der gestiegene Strombedarf durch #Rechenzentren weckt neues Interesse an #Kernenergie.

#Westinghouse unveils small modular #nuclearreactor
The Small modular reactor (#SMR), dubbed #AP300 for its planned 300MW capacity, will not use special fuels or liquid metal coolants unlike some other next-generation #nuclear reactors. It will be a smaller version of its #AP1000 reactor, several of which are operating in #China, and which are ramping up in Georgia at the Vogtle plant, after years of delay and billions of dollars over budget.

#Ukraine and #NuclearPower

"In Ukraine, from 2030 to 2040, 12 out of 15 units will be shut down as they reach their 30-years design and 20-years beyond-design service life"

"Without the replacement of existing nuclear infrastructure, the country will be facing a threat of deindustrialization"

" Ukraine plans to build two #Westinghouse #AP1000 reactors. The expected completion date is 2030-2032. The cost of one unit is approx. $5 billion"

#Bulgaria politics never learn. No, Bulgaria will not be able to finance an #AP1000 #nuclear plant at #Kozloduy. No, #Belene parts will not be usable without a lot of extra costs and hence save nothing. Time to power BG fully #renewable. https://world-nuclear-news.org/Articles/Bulgarian-parliament-backs-new-AP1000-reactor-at-K
Bulgarian parliament backs new AP1000 reactor at Kozloduy : New Nuclear - World Nuclear News
