Background: Off-Site Modular Construction (OSMC) can decrease direct costs by 20-80%[1]. Utilizing OSMC presents exponentially more options for plant designers, along with the configurations presented by cogeneration options such as desalination, residential/ industrial heat, cogeneration, hydrogen production.
Objective: It has…
New Technologies such as High Temperature Superconducting magnets and advanced computing in Fusion Reactors, Advanced Generation IV Reactor Technologies or Off-Site Modular Construction are exciting developments in low carbon energy. Modular Reactors enable “factory shop build and transport to site” according to the International Atomic Ener…
This paper describes a case study in seeking to encourage widespread adoption of Systems Engineering at the UK Atomic Energy Authority. Until recently, the quest for fusion energy has primarily been in the scientific research domain, but with a shift in focus to delivering commercially viable fusion power plants, there is a clear need for SE to …
