Description

The small HTR-100 high temperature reactor combines the reactor concept of the AVR reactor, which has been proven for 20 years, with the latest component technology of the THTR power plant which has been in operation since 1985. The nuclear heat supply system is conceived so as to be applicable for the generation of electric power, district heat and process steam according to the costumer's demand. The HTR-100 reactor has a thermal power of 258 MW and offers steam parameters of 190 bar/ 530 degrees C. To cover a higher power demand HTR-100 reactors can be combined forming a larger power plant. Economic analyses have shown competiveness with fossil power plants. (author)
