Advanced Pressurized Water Reactor
Advanced Pressurized Water Reactor is a type of
nuclear reactor which is an improved version of existing
Pressurized Water Reactor types. Examples include Westinghouse's AP600 and AP1000, Areva's
EPR and Mitsubishi's APWR.
Westinghouse of which
Toshiba owns a 77% share, has obtained approval of two standard plant types; the AP600 and the AP1000, the latter of which is expected to see construction before 2010. An EPR is currently being constructed in Finland. Mitsubishi's US-APWR is in the pre-application stage of the licensing process of the
Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
