"We will maximize the effect of the third-generation pressurized water reactor and the fourth-generation high-temperature gas-cooled reactor integrated at the big base; further enhance China's ...

The reactor in Shidao Bay, China is the world’s first gas-cooled nuclear power plant built for commercial demonstration. It is cooled by helium and can reach high temperatures of up to 750 ...

But the Shidaowan's claim to fame is how it generates power. The reactor is cooled using helium gas instead of water — a boon for China as it struggles to find ample water for its people.

The small prototype reactor becomes the first Japanese gas-cooled reactor to restart following the introduction of new safety regulations. The HTTR reactor (Image: JAEA) The 30 MWt graphite-moderated ...

However, China has now constructed a full-scale Temperature Gas-Cooled Reactor Pebble-Bed Module (HTR-PM) in Shandong, which became commercially operational in December 2023 and is equipped with ...

This marks the first time a restart permission has been granted for a Japanese gas-cooled reactor. The HTTR reactor (Image: JAEA) The HTTR - in Oarai, Ibaraki Prefecture - is a small prototype ...
