The ABWR combines the best features of GEH's worldwide BWR fleet - producing 1350 to 1460 MW net power.  The enhanced technology, compact construction, and optimized modularization provide an economical, dependable energy solution. The ABWR is an excellent power source when environmental and safety concerns are a top priority.

• Designed for Power Generation applications.
• Robust, reliable power source.
• Economical to build, staff and maintain.
• Environmentally friendly, while meeting high safety standards.

• Ideal for regions requiring massive amounts of electricity, yet needing to limit CO2 emissions.
• The ABWR design is certified in the U.S., Japan, and Taiwan.
• The island of Taiwan has few natural resources, so all fuel sources are imported primarily by sea. With Taiwan's desire for energy independence, nuclear is the perfect solution.

The ABWR is a direct-cycle BWR that reflects 50 years of continued evolution from GEH's initial BWR concept. The advanced technology enhancements improve performance and longevity, while also ensuring a safe, reliable, and easily maintained power source.  With its compact, modular design, the ABWR is a cost-conscious solution.

• The sophisticated control systems are fully digital - providing reliable and accurate plant monitoring, control, and diagnostics.
• The reactor internal pumps eliminate external recirculation systems - improving performance and safety while eliminating in-service inspection requirements.
• High integrity fuel and improved water chemistry reduces radwaste and occupational exposure.
• The integrated containment and reactor systems improve seismic response, and the modular design results in compact construction requiring less material and a shorter building schedule.

• Output power: 1350 to 1460 MW net
• Emission: Nearly zero CO2 greenhouse gas emissions
• Lifetime: 60 years
• Core Damage Frequency: 1E-7
• Availability and Capacity Factor: >90%

A proposed new nuclear project carries business risks - butthose are mitigated by GEH's wealth of experience. A well-managedengineering and construction team can facilitate the entireprocess. The ABWR is fully designed complete with equipment andmanufacturing drawings. Long before first concrete is poured, allsafety and engineering issues are identified and plans are in placefor smooth execution. Materials, quantities, costs, and scheduleare known and tracked so risk is minimized. A GEH-led team ofsuppliers and equipment sub-suppliers can readily transplant itsexperience and know-how to a new host country.
