Advanced Nuclear Power

Advanced nuclear power refers to newer designs of nuclear reactors that aim to be safer, more efficient, and generate less waste than traditional models. These innovations include small modular reactors (SMRs), fast reactors, and fusion technology, often utilizing innovative materials and processes. They enhance safety through passive safety systems that operate without human intervention and reduce proliferation risks. Advanced reactors also aim to produce more energy from less fuel, lessen environmental impact, and provide reliable, low-carbon electricity. Overall, they represent a significant step forward in harnessing nuclear energy for cleaner and safer power generation.
