Notes

Feasibility study into using BWXT mPower SMRs in floating nuclear power plants. 195 MWe integral pressurized light-water design. Study covers systems engineering, regulatory pathway, marine integration, and techno-economic analysis. Partnership with BWXT and Applied Atomics for technology development. Operational date source: World Nuclear News article, middle of next decade for full commercialisation. This is the BWXT mPower feasibility study; Core Power's Liberty programme (shipyard-built floating plants with Westinghouse's eVinci microreactor) is recorded as its own project.
