NEUP CINR-20-19363: Integrated Solar & Nuclear Cogeneration of Electricity & Water using the sCO2 Cycle

We will design and model a nuclear + renewable Integrated Energy System (IES) for co-generation of cost competitive electricity and clean water. This will comprise: • Concentrated Solar Power (CSP) • The supercritical CO2 (sCO2) cycle • Multi effect distillation (MED) • Lead-cooled Fast Reactor (LFR) We will develop modeling tools that will allow IES to be simulated, hence providing a crucial toolset for present and future studies of this type.
