The ARC-100 is an advanced small modular nuclear reactor designed by Advanced Reactor Concepts LLC and GE-Hitachi Nuclear Energy. It is based on sodium-cooled fast reactor technology, originally developed by the U.S. Department of Energy, with a track record of over 450 reactor-years of operating experience from a global fleet of similar reactors since the 1950s. The ARC-100 reactor is designed to provide 100 megawatts of stable electrical power, enough to supply around 75,000 households. It incorporates modern design improvements and inherent safety features that allow the reactor to safely shut down without operator intervention, relying on passive systems driven by physical laws. This design aims to be economical, seeking a projected cost of electricity competitive with renewables, and sustainable, as it operates on a 20-year refueling cycle and a 60 year operating lifecycle. The ARC-100 also targets versatility, with potential applications ranging from electricity generation to i...
