PRISM (Power Reactor Innovative Small Module)

PRISM (Power Reactor Innovative Small Module) is an advanced nuclear reactor design developed by Westinghouse. It’s a small, modular reactor that uses liquid sodium as a coolant, enabling high efficiency and safety. PRISM is designed to generate electricity cleanly with less waste and enhanced safety features, including passive cooling systems that operate without human intervention in case of an emergency. Its compact size allows for easier installation and potential scalability, making it suitable for diverse energy needs and reducing the environmental footprint compared to traditional large reactors. PRISM aims to provide reliable, safe, and cost-effective nuclear energy for the future.
