Inactive testing of the VR-2 reactor successfully completed!

Last week, the last tests of the VR-2 subcritical reactor technology were carried out. These were mainly tests of water management, the control system and other components of the reactor. The next milestone will be obtaining a physical startup test permit. This means testing the VR-2 reactor with nuclear fuel!
