Description
The purpose of this paper is to introduce the technical and economic performances of the AMR OTRERA developed in France and the development roadmap.
OTRERA is an innovative AMR (Advanced Modular Reactor) reactor that brings real breakthroughs compared to the competition, giving it a unique market positioning and higher than average profitability. Its unit capacity of 300 MWth enables it to meet local needs, whether those of conurbations or industrial sites.
The OTRERA reactor is a fast-spectrum, 4th-generation reactor that uses spent fuel from conventional reactors soil in spend fuel storage pools, and recycles it for its own operation.
The reactor's long operating autonomy, of the order of 10 years, ensures stable, reliable electricity production.
OTRERA's cogeneration heat offers a unique business model that makes it highly profitablé by offering a wide range of industrial purposes.
To meet the challenge of rapid deployment the OTRERA reactor relies on:
• Sodium Fast Reactor technology, which is the most mature of the 4th generation technologies.
• Its own technological advances, based on the experience of its founders and the technological building blocks developed during the ASTRID program.
• On the strength of this technological lead, we are proposing to commission a first series reactor by 2032 and then rapidly deploy more than hundred reactors in around twenty years.
