Canadian Nuclear Safety Commission - R550.1 Survey of Design and Regulatory Requirements for New Small Reactors, Contract No. 87055-13-0356 Final Report - July 3, 2014 Executive Summary The objectives of this report are to perform a design survey of small modular reactors (SMRs) with near-term deployment potential, with a particular emphasis on identifying their innovative safety features, and to review the Canadian nuclear regulatory framework to assess whether the current and proposed regulatory documents adequately address SMR licensing challenges. SMRs are being designed to lower the initial financing cost of a nuclear power plant or to supply electricity in small grids (often in remote areas) which cannot accommodate large nuclear power plants (NPPs). The majority of the advanced SMR designs is based on pressurized water reactor (PWR) technology, while some non-PWR Generation IV technologies (e.g., gas-cooled reactor, lead-cooled reactor, sodium-cooled fast reactor, etc.) are also being pursued.

  • Russia Highly Appreciates the Activity of IAEA and Its Role in Promoting "Peaceful Atom” in Every Aspects of Life
    Unofficial translation Dear colleagues, ladies and gentlemen! Russia highly appreciates the activity of IAEA and its role in promoting "peaceful atom” in every aspects of life. We strongly support Agency's activities in the field of nuclear science and technology, participate in virtually all areas of activity and provide our knowledge, experience, educational opportunities and experimental facilities to promote this important industry. We are convinced that nuclear and radiation technologies, based on solid foundation of science, will make a significant contribution to achievement of Sustainable Development Goals of mankind, including problems of climate and power supply. The strategic goal of Russian nuclear industry is to ensure the innovative development of our country based on the expansion of application of nuclear technologies in various sectors of the economy. The focus is traditionally set on the development of nuclear energy technologies. We are convinced that the future of nuclear energy is inextricably linked with the closure of the nuclear fuel cycle. Russian scientists have already made a significant contribution to the development and commercialization of this direction, demonstrating to the world the operability and attractiveness of its key element - fast neutron reactor of 4th generation. This was the basis for the development and implementation of the Breakthrough project with a demonstration of technical solutions for existing challenges, nuclear power industry faces today: critical decision to increase the safety of nuclear power generation is the transition to “natural safety” reactor systems and the resolution of issues related to the management of spent nuclear fuel and radioactive waste. Undoubtedly, one of the components of new technological platform is the development of low and medium power sector of nuclear power industry.

  • Russia's Akademik Lomonosov – the First Modern Floating Nuclear
    Russia’s Akademik Lomonosov – The First Modern Floating Nuclear Power Plant (FNPP) Peter Lobner, 15 May 2021 1. Introduction Designated Project 20870, construction of Akademik Lomonosov started on 15 April 2007, when the keel was laid at the Sevmash shipyard in Severodvinsk, which also is Russia’s premier submarine building shipyard. Originally, Akademik Lomonosov was expected to supply power to the Sevmash shipyard itself and the town of Severodvinsk, in Northwest Russia. Cutaway drawing showing the general arrangement of the Akademik Lomonosov. Source: Rosatom In August 2008, the hull of Akademik Lomonosov was transferred to the Baltic Shipyard in St. Petersburg, where a second “keel laying” was held in May 2009. Plans for deploying the FNPP were reconsidered, leading to the final selection of Pevek, a remote Arctic coastal city in Russia’s Far East. The FNPP was launched on 30 June 2010 and outfitting continued with the vessel secured dockside at the Baltic Shipyard. Two un-fueled OKBM Afrikantov KLT-40S modular pressurized water reactors (PWRs) were installed in October 2013. 1 After work on the vessel and reactor systems was completed in April 2018, Akademik Lomonosov was towed 4,000 km (2,485 miles) around Norway to Murmansk, where the reactors were fuelled and tested at Rosatomflot facilities, which also support their nuclear- powered icebreaker fleet. In June 2019, the Russian nuclear regulatory agency Rostekhnadzor issued a 10-year license to Rosenergoatom to operate Akademik Lomonosov until 2029. After successfully completing testing, Akademik Lomonosov departed Murmansk on 23 August 2019 and was towed 4,770 km (2,964 miles) along the Northern Sea Route, arriving at its final destination on 9 September 2019 at a new protected pier at Pevek, which is about 980 km (609 miles) west of the Bering Strait.

  • Marine Nuclear Power: 1939 – 2018
    Marine Nuclear Power: 1939 – 2018 Part 3B: Russia - Surface Ships & Non-propulsion Marine Nuclear Applications Peter Lobner July 2018 1 Foreword In 2015, I compiled the first edition of this resource document to support a presentation I made in August 2015 to The Lyncean Group of San Diego (www.lynceans.org) commemorating the 60th anniversary of the world’s first “underway on nuclear power” by USS Nautilus on 17 January 1955. That presentation to the Lyncean Group, “60 years of Marine Nuclear Power: 1955 – 2015,” was my attempt to tell a complex story, starting from the early origins of the US Navy’s interest in marine nuclear propulsion in 1939, resetting the clock on 17 January 1955 with USS Nautilus’ historic first voyage, and then tracing the development and exploitation of marine nuclear power over the next 60 years in a remarkable variety of military and civilian vessels created by eight nations. In July 2018, I finished a complete update of the resource document and changed the title to, “Marine Nuclear Power: 1939 – 2018.” What you have here is Part 3B: Russia - Surface Ships & Non-propulsion Marine Nuclear Applications. The other parts are: Part 1: Introduction Part 2A: United States - Submarines Part 2B: United States - Surface Ships Part 3A: Russia - Submarines Part 4: Europe & Canada Part 5: China, India, Japan and Other Nations Part 6: Arctic Operations 2 Foreword This resource document was compiled from unclassified, open sources in the public domain. I acknowledge the great amount of work done by others who have published material in print or posted information on the internet pertaining to international marine nuclear propulsion programs, naval and civilian nuclear powered vessels, naval weapons systems, and other marine nuclear applications.
