EPR™ Projects Status

The Value of Experience



The Value of Experience: LICENSING

The EPR™ reactor: ► Construction license granted by Finnish, French

and Chinese Safety Authorities ► Final Design Acceptance confirmation issued by

the ONR in the UK in December 2012

The only Gen 3+ design submitted to the post– Fukushima European Safety checks

The EPR™ Reactor fully complies with WENRA objectives for New Power Reactors and is ready to comply with post–Fukushima requirements

This unique breadth and depth of design review strongly mitigates the licensing risk related to nuclear new build
