VVER reactor designs have been elaborated to incorporate automatic control, passive safety and containment systems associated with Western generation III reactors. The VVER-1200 is the version currently offered for construction, being an evolution of the VVER-1000 with increased power output to about 1200 MWe (gross) and providing additional ...
The VVER-TOI design is intended to improve the competitiveness of Russian VVER technology in international markets. It would use VVER-1300/510 water pressurized reactors constructed to meet modern nuclear and radiation safety requirements.
In 2008, negotiations on building four additional reactors at the site began. Though the capacity of these reactors had not been declared, it was expected that the capacity of each reactor will be 1,200 MW (1.2 GW). [20] [21] The new reactors would bring the total capacity of the power plant to 6,800 MW (6.8 GW).
VVER is the Soviet designation for a pressurized water reactor.The number following VVER, in this case 440, represents the power output of the original design. The VVER-440 Model V213 was a product of the first uniform safety requirements drawn up by the Soviet designers.
This category includes power stations with the VVER-440, VVER-1000, VVER-1200 reactors. Pages in category "Nuclear power stations using VVER reactors" The following 33 pages are in this category, out of 33 total.
The first four units are Russian standard reactors of type VVER-1000, and have capacity approximately 1 GW. Units 5 and 6 are Chinese-designed ACPR-1000 reactors, with a traditional 3-loop system. Units 7 and 8 will use the updated VVER-1200 design capable of approximately 1.2 GW, with twice the expected operational lifetime and a 2/3-slower ...
The nuclear plant has six Soviet-designed VVER-1000 V-320 water-cooled and water-moderated reactors containing Uranium 235, and also has spent nuclear fuel at the facility. ... Reactors 1, 2, 5 ...
This category is for power reactor types of which more than one example has been built, or for which that was or still is the intention. These types are not exclusive, for example a VVER is a PWR. It may not even always be clear what is included in a type: In some contexts an ABWR is a type of BWR, but in most contexts it is not.
