Generation III+ reactors[edit]
Generation III+ designs offer significant improvements in safety and economics over Generation III advanced reactor designs certified by the NRC in the 1990s.[10]
Advanced CANDU Reactor (ACR-1000)
AP1000 — based on the AP600 with increased power output. NRC certified Dec 2005.[5]
European Pressurized Reactor (EPR) — an evolutionary descendant of the Framatome N4 and Siemens Power Generation Division KONVOI reactors.[10]
Economic Simplified Boiling Water Reactor (ESBWR) — based on the ABWR
APR-1400 — an advanced PWR design evolved from the U.S. System 80+, which is the basis for the Korean Next Generation Reactor or KNGR [1]
VVER-1200
V392M (PWR) — in design of AES-2006/92 with mainly passive safety features
V491 (PWR) — in design of AES-2006/91 with mainly active safety features, international sold as MIR.1200
V513 (PWR) — in design of AES-2006/91M with active and passive safety features and VVER-TOI-features, based von V491 and V510
VVER-1300
V510 (PWR) — in design of AES-2010 (also referred to as WWER-TOI), based on V392M
EU-ABWR — based on the ABWR with increased power output and compliance with EU safety standard.
B&W mPower — an Advanced Light Water Reactor in development by Babcock and Wilcox and Bechtel [2]
