Abstract
There is an increasing interest among Member States in the potential for deployment of smaller nuclear power plant units as energy sources for power production, heat generation, co-generation of heat and electricity, desalination, etc., and the IAEA has made an updated survey of the design and development status of small and medium power reactors (SMR) systems. This publication presents material submitted by different vendors and organizations and conclusions drawn from the discussions of these contributions at a number of consultants meetings and an Advisory Group meeting. In this context, it should be noted that the role of IAEA is not to promote any particular design or solution, but to provide a forum for the exchange of information, and to compile reports on the results of such information exchanges. The objectives of this report are to provide a balanced review of the current discussion on SMR potential and common features to both high level decision makers and technical managers. The report presents a review of the economic market and financial aspects of such systems. It also provides highlights of the incentives for the developments, as well as the main objectives and requirements currently under discussion in many Member States that are
