Both public and private international organisations are currently working intensively on the application of the new SMR technology. The entire fuel cycle is already being considered in the development of these small modular reactors (SMRs). SMR concepts pose completely new and unique challenges for waste and spent fuel management.
GNS is applying its decades of experience in the disposal of commercial power reactors and research reactors to the future market for SMRs and is addressing the current issues. Together with our customers, we develop tailor-made solutions for the efficient and safe disposal of nuclear waste.
GNS has joined the newly established European Industrial Alliance for Small Modular Reactors. GNS will contribute its extensive expertise in the nuclear backend and is ready to implement appropriate solutions.
