SMR Spotlight Series – WNA CORDEL SMR Group

Dear Colleague,

No doubt you've heard a fantastic sales pitch for an SMR, but critical to successful deployment will be the ability of vendors to efficiently export their technology despite being faced with numerous sovereign regulators.

For this reason, the work of the WNA's Cooperation in Reactor Design Evaluation and Licensing (CORDEL) Group could not be more important.

I recently spoke with CORDEL's co-chair Kristiina Soderholm in order to get the latest on their efforts to streamline the international regulatory system so that it will be ready in time for a boom in SMR exports and deployments.

By securing your copy of the interview transcript you will:

Understand why the WNA CORDEL group is looking to separate SMR plant specific concerns from more general standards of nuclear safety via a 'module certification' strategy and recognise the implications this will have on your SMR project

Assess the implications of breaking down SMR technology into sufficiently independent modules and analyse the effects of 'pre-licensing' SMR instrumentation to an internationally approved standard on critical nuclear supply chains

Receive an exclusive update of the imminent WNA CORDEL group study report and gain a first look at their short-term plan for achieving greater international confidence in the exportability of SMR technology

I hope you find this paper useful - let me know if you have any questions.

Kind regards,

Kerr
