GEH And Synthos Begin Discussions With Regulator For Potential SMR :: The Independent Global Nuclear News Agency

GEH And Synthos Begin Discussions With Regulator For Potential SMR :: The Independent Global Nuclear News Agency: GE Hitachi Nuclear Energy announced that Synthos Green Energy, a member of Poland-based Synthos Group, has begun discussions with Poland’s National Atomic Energy Agency (PAA) about a potential BWRX-300 small modular reactor project.

Under Polish legislation, before applying for a permit to construct a nuclear facility, a party such as Synthos may ask the PAA to issue a general opinion about the organisational and technical solutions to be applied in the construction and operation of a potential facility in Poland.

Synthos, part of the largest private industrial group in Poland, intends to request a general opinion and has submitted to PAA a document describing technical attributes of the BWRX-300.

Synthos president Rafał Kasprów said this is a first step and “we are prepared to move forward with the regulatory process together with the PAA.”
