The generation III+ EPR™ reactor: key assets
The EPR™ nuclear reactor provided by AREVA is currently the latest development in pressurized water reactors (PWR).
Safety, operational performance and competitivenes are the key strengths of the EPR™ reactor. This pressurized water model is also the first generation III+ reactor to be deployed on an international scale, being built in Finland, France, and China.
A state-of-the-art reactor
The EPR™ reactor is the latest model in pressurized water reactors. Innovative, it provides increased performance and safety.
Continuity in technology
As a descendant of N4 and KONVOI reactors, the EPR™ reactor benefits from the experience of both of these reactors.
The EPR™ reactor: an adapted response
The EPR™ reactor has been approved and authorized by the most exacting bodies. Its construction has begun in Finland, France, and China.
An even safer reactor
The EPR™ reactor guarantees an extremely high level of safety. It is designed to withstand both external hazards and an internal accident.
A competitive reactor
The extremely high competitiveness of the EPR™ is down to both its optimized fuel management and its extended service life.
Designed for sustainability
The EPR™ reactor features improvements in terms of sustainable development, in particular a reduced production of radioactive waste.
Enhanced radiation protection
The EPR™ reactor is designed to improve radiation protection for personnel: the collective dose of radioactivity is less than natural doses.
