Technology Description
The G4M is a liquid metal-cooled, fast spectrum small, modular reactor technology initially developed by scientists at Los Alamos National Labs and obtained by Gen4 Energy (then Hyperion Power) via a technology transfer agreement. This lead-bismuth eutectic-cooled, uranium nitride-fueled reactor with a capacity of 70 MWt/25MWe is designed such that the fueled and sealed reactor vessel may be transported in a conventional shipping cask and for 10 year operation without refueling, during which the reactor vessel remains sealed.
