Overview of the UK EPR™ GDA Submission
Overview of the UK EPR™ GDA Submission, provides an overview of the main design and safety features of the UK EPR™ reactor. It provides links to key chapters of the UK EPR™ GDA submission where further information is provided. It outlines the structure of our GDA submission and explains where to find information and how to make a comment. Why not download a copy....
The AREVA and EDF UK EPR™ GDA submission comprises a: Safety, Security and Environmental Report (SSER) consisting of a:
Pre Construction Safety Report (PCSR) describing nuclear safety aspects and a:
Pre Construction Environment Report (PCER) describing the environmental impact of the UK EPR™ design. Supporting documents provide further information on the UK EPR™ reactor.
The EPR™ reactor is a Pressurised Water Reactor whose design combines familiar and proven technology based on the most recent French N4 and German KONVOI reactors with performance and safety innovations to effectively meet current and future electricity needs.
Four EPR™ reactors are already being built in Finland, France and China.
The purpose of this website is to inform members of the public of the UK EPR™ reactor design which is currently being assessed by the UK Regulatory Authorities under their Generic Design Assessment process. Comments on any aspect of the UK EPR™ Submission can be made via the Overview document.
