Advantages of modular high temperature gas-cooled reactor

① High power generation efficiency: its power generation efficiency is about 25% higher than that of pressurized water reactor nuclear power plants.

②Short construction period: 100MW capacity high temperature gas-cooled reactor adopts modular construction method, and the construction period can be shortened to two years. Compared with the construction period of 5-6 years of pressurized water reactor nuclear power plant, it reduces the interest during the construction period and enables Construction is about 20% less than investment;

③Simple system: The passive safety features of the high-temperature gas-cooled reactor make the system much simpler. It is not necessary to set up engineering safety facilities such as the emergency core cooling system and containment in the PWR nuclear power plant, which saves construction investment.

④ High safety: It has inherent safety features, and traditional risks such as core melting will not occur in the most serious accidents.
