Nuclear reactors
Manufacturing of water-cooled water-moderated power reactors is the key profile of AEM-Technologies. The high safety and reliability of the Russian-designed nuclear reactors allowed the company to take a leading position in the global nuclear energy market.
The current reactor generations combine the best developments in the industry and are in great demand among Russian and foreign customers.
AEM-Technologies produces water-cooled water-moderated power reactors VVER-1000, VVER-1200, and VVER-TOI. Each generation has individual advantages and the common key one is high reliability, which can be achieved through application of the up-to-date quality management methods, use of the unique equipment and constant development of technologies.
VVER-1000 is a time-proved and, today, most common reactor in the world. VVER-1200 is a flagship development with improved technical characteristics, higher power, and enhanced safety systems. VVER-TOI is the latest generation of Russian-designed reactors, a product with the best technical and economic parameters, targeted for promotion at the international market.
