GE Hitachi Nuclear Energy

It’s been a busy November for the GE Hitachi Nuclear Energy (GEH) and ORLEN Synthos Green Energy (OSGE) BWRX-300 project teams in #Poland. Earlier this month, GEH, OSGE and Laurentis Energy Partners signed an agreement to prepare the Preliminary Safety Analysis Report (PSAR) for OSGE’s SMR project. Ontario Minister of Energy and Electrification Stephen Lecce and Polish government officials participate in the signing ceremony in Warsaw. The Laurentis, GEH and OSGE teams then held a multi-day workshop to prepare an action plan and schedule the work of a team of more than 100 people to prepare the PSAR, which demonstrates the safety of a plant design and is a key element of the nuclear power plant licensing process. The GEH and OSGE teams also continued their support of European Industrial Alliance on Small Modular Reactors (#SMR) working groups, sharing knowledge about the BWRX-300 and discussing how to support the supply chain in adapting to requirements of the nuclear industry. Finally, GEH Poland Country Leader Dagmara Peret announced that GEH has become a member of the Canada-Poland Chamber of Commerce, another step in the international cooperation that is key to the deployment of this technology. #FutureOfEnergy #NuclearPower

ORLEN Synthos Green Energy, GEH and Laurentis Energy Partners will work together to prepare the Preliminary Safety Analysis Report (PSAR) for OSGE’s BWRX-300 small modular reactor nuclear project in Poland. An agreement formalizing the cooperation was signed today during a ceremony in Warsaw. “International collaboration will be crucial to the successful execution of new nuclear projects so we are excited to work together with OSGE and Laurentis Energy Partners on this licensing requirement for deployment of our SMR technology in Poland,” said Sean Sexstone, Executive Vice President, Advanced Nuclear, GEH. A PSAR demonstrates the safety of a plant design and is a key element of the nuclear power plant licensing process. GEH and Ontario-based Laurentis worked closely with Ontario Power Generation to prepare a BWRX-300 PSAR for the Canadian Nuclear Safety Commission. “PSAR is one of the key elements of the whole licensing process for a nuclear power plant. By having such experienced partners involved in the project, we are confident that OSGE will deliver to the Polish nuclear authority a comprehensive report that meets all requirements of the Polish law,” said Rafa? Kasprów, CEO of OSGE. “We are launching work on the first PSAR related to small modular reactors in the EU. This is a significant milestone in the SMR deployment process, and I believe it paves the way for bolder actions in other European countries, as well.” “Laurentis is excited to work with OSGE and GE Hitachi to take the next steps to establish the feasibility of small modular reactor deployment in Poland,” said Jason Van Wart, President and CEO of Laurentis. “As a company with experience and expertise in new nuclear services from conception to execution, including regulatory support, we are uniquely positioned to help OSGE progress its project to enable Poland to achieve its clean energy ambitions.” Ontario Minister of Energy and Electrification Stephen Lecce and Polish government officials participated in the ceremony.
