X-energy is a nuclear reactor and fuel design engineering company developing generation IV high temperature gas cooled reactors and the TRISO fuel to fuel them.In order to maximize the chances of their technology being able to be licensed in Canada they required licensing support for all their Canadian licensing activities and interactions with the regulatorThe work included supporting them in their Phase 1/Phase 2 Vendor Design Review (VDR) with the CNSC, as described in CNSC REGDOC-3.5.4, “Pre-Licensing Review of a Vendor’s Reactor Design”, and in assessing compliance with associated Canadian regulations, codes and standards.The VDR process provides early regulator feedback on their Xe-100 design and assures that a resolution path exists for any findings identified.In addition to VDR, X-energy needed support in executing various Canadian licensing tasks, including support for Ontario Power Generation's new build vendor due diligence assessment process for potential new build at Darlington, as well as assessment of the unique regulatory considerations associated with industrial applications of nuclear technology.
