7. AP1000 – Safe, Simple and Standardized
Passive safety replaces mechanical & electrical systems - results in less materials and equipment
Modular design drives faster, predictable construction schedule
Reduced Operations and Maintenance cost versus other plant designs
AP1000 design utilizes proven Westinghouse experience and technology
Endorsement for the AP1000 design
continues to grow worldwide... 7
