What Does APWR Stand For?

APWR stands for Advanced Pressurized Water Reactor

APWR, or Advanced Pressurized Water Reactor, is a type of nuclear power reactor that utilizes pressurized water as both a coolant and a neutron moderator. This generation of reactor technology features enhanced safety and efficiency measures, advanced fuel management, and improved thermal performance compared to traditional pressurized water reactors. APWRs are designed to meet stringent regulatory requirements and minimize environmental impact while providing reliable and sustainable energy production.
