Abstract

U ovom radu obrađeni su mali modularni reaktori (SMR). Objašnjene su njihove karakteristike, pojedinosti te izvedbe u odnosu na države koje ulažu u njihovo razvijanje. Prikazana su trenutna ograničenja i nedostaci obnovljivih izvora kao stabilnog doprinosa proizvodnji energije u EES-u. Objašnjenja je potencijalna primjena SMR-a u otklanjanju problema OIE te su predstavljeni hibridni sustavi kao novi pristup rješavanja problema nestabilnosti mreže. Prikazana je ekonomska isplativost SMR-a te je objašnjen pristup njihovog zaobilaženja ekonomije veličine i potencijalne konkurentnosti na tržištu električnom energijom.

Abstract (english)

In this paper, small modular reactors (SMR) are treated. Their characteristics, designs and configurations are explained , as well as their difference depending to the countries that invest in their development. The current limitations and shortcomings of renewable sources as a stable contribution to energy production in the power system are presented. The potential application of SMR in the elimination of RES problems is explained, and hybrid systems are presented as a new approach to solving the problem of network intermittency. The economic viability of SMRs is presented and well as the approach of bypassing the economy of scale and becoming potentially competitive in the electricity market of tomorrow.
