• Passive safety replaces mechanical and electrical systems – harnesses natural forces like gravity, convection and condensation to achieve safe shutdown

• Strong licensing pedigree based on reviews in multiple countries; first Generation III+ reactor to receive design certification from the U.S. NRC

• Simplified design and modular construction provide a plant that is easier and less expensive to build, operate and maintain
