HTR-PM
It is logic and strategic to build an industrial
demonstration plant as the follow-up development
step after the success of the HTR-10 test reactor.
A 200MWe modular pebble bed HTGR
demonstration project (HTR-PM) has been initiated
and under implementation.
Since 2006, the project has become one of the
national key projects within the 2020 National
Science & Technologies Development Program of
China.
HTR-PM has been under construction since 2012.

Next Steps
Role of HTR-PM
Power generation, as supplement to
PWRs, especially to replace coal-fired
power plant to reduce coal share
Co-generation of steam and electricity
Process heat for e.g. hydrogen
production
