It has done so by converting some of the stockpile into fuel plates to power Tehran's research reactor.
Iran has done so by converting some of that stockpile into fuel plates to power Tehran's research reactor, the IAEA has said.
's nuclear watchdog, the International Atomic Energy Agency, said in late December that Tehran had amassed 232 kilograms of uranium enriched to the 20% level but that almost 100 kilograms of that amount is being converted into fuel plates to power Tehran's research reactor.
Conceptually, I think this is a cool idea, allowing for both flexible power construction and a very safe reactor design.
The government defends its decision on the grounds that, if it does decide to build more power plants, owning a major reactor-builder could lead to competition problems.
ECONOMIST: Selling Westinghouse is lucrative but controversial
The company also still intends to move forward with plans to request regulatory approval to build a third reactor at its nuclear power station in Louisa County, Va.
GreatPoint relied on widely available technology wherever possible, including the fluidized-bed reactor, common in power plants across the country, in which pulverized coal is combined with oxygen so it burns more efficiently.
On and RWE - hope to build a new power station, next to the existing reactor building, after 2025.
The failure of diesel generators, which power water pumps that are critical to reactor cooling systems, was a leading cause of the current crisis.
"Any reactor in the country that is faced with a station blackout or a loss of power and a backup is not as well-positioned as the reactor in Japan, " said Mr. Lochbaum.
Workers struggled to contain a burning reactor at the Fukushima nuclear-power plant as the site emitted small but worrying amounts of radiation.
Inquiries have got under way after Reactor 1 at the Wylfa nuclear power station on Anglesey was stopped due to a problem with refuelling work.
It later submitted another analysis showing the reactor could run at 100 percent power, but the research found the risk of a tube break could reach unacceptable levels after 11 months.
Seoul has been pushing for a green light to enrich uranium and reprocess spent nuclear-reactor fuel to develop its nuclear power industry, but Washington has been opposed out of concern it could spur nuclear weapons proliferation.
The plant's operator Tokyo Electric Power Co (Tepco) said exposure to radiation levels in the No 3 reactor for four-and-a-half hours would exceed the emergency safety limit for power plant workers.
However, since the UK will most likely adopt a single reactor system for all its new nuclear power plants, there will only be one type of waste stream.
In addition to clearing our last remaining scientific hurdle, we need to advance a parallel engineering agenda into key reactor technologies that will enable commercial fusion power plants to reliably deliver electricity in a highly competitive market.
The telltale sign of trouble at reactor No. 2, Tokyo Electric Power Co. officials said, was that pressure had dropped in the "suppression pool" the part of the reactor that converts steam to water at the bottom of the container.
