Summary:

This publication by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) outlines the approach and methodology for developing regulatory safety requirements for the design of advanced nuclear power reactors, with a focus on small modular reactors (SMRs). It addresses the increasing interest in SMRs as a viable option for electricity production and non-electric applications to meet climate change goals. The methodology integrates risk-informed, objective-oriented, and performance-based approaches to assist member states in applying engineering judgment for the safety of structures, systems, and components of advanced nuclear power plants. It includes specific examples of advanced design safety features of SMRs. Generated by AI.
