Advanced Reactor Design - Reactor Digital Phase 2

Tender description

This procurement is for Phase 2 of the Advanced Reactor Design work area which is part of the £180m Nuclear Innovation Programme (NIP).This work builds upon the work undertaken in the previous phases and contributes to meeting the objectives of the NIP. The programme is expected to deliver the following benefits: •Enhanced designs, increased productivity and a step change in the way that nuclear design, development and construction programmes are delivered. •Increased and widespread uptake of modern digital engineering practices within the UK nuclear industry for the design of future reactor systems. •Improved understanding and safety of through life performance of reactor components. •A greater predictive modelling capability and understanding of passive safety arguments. •Facilitate extended UK participation in associated international activities in designing of future reactor systems.
