Construction of small and medium

dual application complexes (power and heat) in local and remote areas with poor energy infrastructure

Coastal desalination nuclear power

complex comprising two types of onshore desalination plants

(multi-layered distillation and

reverse osmosis).

Renovation allows to minimize capital costs per unit two fold as compared

with the construction of new capacities.

FOUR SVBR COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGES

5The content of this presentation is for discussion purposes only. It shall not be considered as

an offer and doesn’t lead to any obligations to AKME-engineering.

Electricity supply Heat supply

Desalinated water Steam supply for industrial needs

Combination of active and passive safety systems

Chemically inert both to water and air lead-bismuth coolant Integral reactor layout

Near-atmospheric pressure inside primary circuit

Accident even with a loss of containment could not lead to radioactive emissions into the

atmosphere

Can operate in closed nuclear fuel cycle mode reducing consumption of

uranium ore and nuclear waste output.

ADVANCED SAFETY

BROAD APPLICATION

SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT

Small dimensions - transportable by rail way, road or waterway

Modular design 100MWe *n – NPPs customized to local needs

Possibility of deployment near residential area (less than 1 km)

Fewer requirements to local energy infrastructure

FLEXIBLE APPROACH
