The EPR reactor has been designed with the highest standards of safety as well as optimized technical, economic and environmental performance... Entirely based upon the fully proven EPR design, the EPR1200 benefits from EPR's robustness at a power output of 1200 MWe (instead of 1650), with the highest standards of safety as well as optimized technical, economic and environmental performance.

The French nuclear industry has been involved in the South African nuclear power program from the very beginning as Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEM) in the plant construction and maintenance of the two units of Koeberg Nuclear Power Station (KNPS) based on its design (French 900 MWe... EDF benefits from a long and wide experience in site characterisation (including geology, seismic assessment, bathymetry...) and in adapting its own design to different site conditions.

These welds do not comply with" the high quality" requirements 3 defined by EDF during the EPR design phase (break preclusion principle). For 10 other welds, EDF has submitted a proposal to the ASN detailing a specific justification method to confirm the high level of safety at the plant throughout its operating life .

Piping and Valve Design. The role of the Piping and Valve Design Department. To design the piping systems for nuclear islands and to specify and monitor the technical management of piping and valve contracts. To produce computer-aided mechanical designs and to manage the valve and piping activities for Edvance.

Edvance is responsible for the EPCC (Design, Procurement, Construction and Commissioning) of nuclear islands for EPR type reactors. This subsidiary of EDF and Framatome is notably involved in the Flamanville 3 and EPR projects (in France), HPC and Sizewell C (in Great Britain) and JNPP (in India) .

Designed to be even safer and even more environmentally friendly than previous reactors, the EPR captures all the recent advances in nuclear safety, reduced environmental impact and technical performance... EDF, Framatome and the other sector manufacturers are currently working together on an optimised EPR design, in the context of the EPR2 project.

The EPR design adopted by Taishan nuclear power plant features third-generation nuclear technology, jointly developed by EDF and Framatome... As the world's leading EPR project, Taishan epitomises the strength of the nuclear partnership between France and China, whilst at the same time providing reactors of similar design around the world with valuable experience in the areas of project management and technological expertise.

The EPR reactor design is approved by the UK regulator. Experience from other EPR projects has been fully integrated into Hinkley Point's planning and design.
