The project’s goal is to investigate and develop innovative approaches to nuclear power station design that will enable the development of a new type of nuclear power station that can provide electricity at rates competitive with other technologies such as renewables and Gas with carbon capture and storage (CCS). The project focusses on incorporating the latest digital technologies, factory production processes and waste reduction systems into an integrated design development programme. This project will act as proof of concept that the resulting power station design would meet societal, environmental, technical and commercial requirements. The consortium of 10 organisations delivering the project are targeting successful delivery of this initial phase of work within 16 months. Upon successful completion of this project, the consortium intends to continue development of the novel small modular nuclear power station design; with the expressed goal of deploying a fleet of these cost effective, low-carbon power stations through the 2030s and 2040s both in the UK and around the world. Ultimately, this will enable the UK to meet its carbon reduction goals, address the global climate change challenge and access an export market worth in excess of £200Bn by the 2030s. Successful delivery of this project will yield technologies, processes and tools that are also applicable to other novel power station designs, such as advanced modular reactors (AMR), future fusion programmes and other major infrastructure programmes.

The manufacture of large scale civil nuclear components presents many technical, economic and environmental challenges. To enable the UK to successfully compete in the domestic and global nuclear power plant market this project aims to maximise manufacturing efficiency and minimise environmental impact. This will be achieved by utilising advanced near net forging/forming, hollow ingots, high integrity electron beam welding , net shape cladding and high speed machining to dramatically increase material yield and deliver larger, more complex civil nuclear components that have previously been impossible to manufacture domestically. This project also aims to combine process modelling and advanced material characterisation methods to understand and optimise both the manufacturing route and metallurgical response of the components, thus maximising the resultant mechanical properties and component integrity. Through these technological advancements the cost, lead time and embodied energy of nuclear forgings can be greatly reduced resulting in reductions in energy unit prices and CO2 emissions in generation.

Nuclear power new build and plant life extension will require the comprehensive and cost-effective deployment of wireless sensors for condition monitoring, instrumentation and control. In many areas, for reasons of safety and security, conventional Radio Frequency wireless communication cannot be used. Visible Light Communications (VLC ) wireless sensors provide a secure and electromagnetic interference free data communication method. VLC is an innovative technology that enables high speed wireless data transmission using LEDs (light emitting diodes). The project will to lead to the development of a range of VLC based sensors that can be used both throughout existing and future nuclear power plants and in other industries such as mining and oil & gas exploration and production.
