SMR Development and Deployment activities in New Brunswick

Abstract

NB Power is working with two companies, ARC Clean Energy Canada and Moltex Energy Canada who are developing two advanced Generation IV Small Modular Reactors for potential deployment in New Brunswick, elsewhere in Canada, and around the world. This paper provides an update on the activities related to both designs and how NB Power is actively working with Ontario Power Generation, Bruce Power, SaskPower and Canadian Nuclear Laboratories on the Pan-Canadian approach for the development and deployment of SMRs. It follows on from a paper produced for the 2019 Annual CNS Conference (Reference 1)
