Critical assessment of techniques, markets and overall economics of Generation III+ and IV reactors
… Based on the uncertainties and lack of detailed design engineering completed, there is not sufficient evidence to suggest that Generation IV reactors, solely by virtue of their different design, will have higher economic potential than current LWRs. A market-based approach was initially taken to …
