Prodigy Clean Energy 和 Serco 公司宣布原型测试项目取得进展,该项目展示了 Prodigy 可运输核电站 (TNPP) 在应对事故和威胁情景方面的稳健性。该项目部分资金来自加拿大政府根据加拿大自然资源部 (NRCan) 小型模块化反应堆 (SMR) 启用计划向 Prodigy 提供的 2,750,000 加元 (CAD)。该项目开创性地收集了支持许可和公众参与所需的关键数据,Prodigy 正在为 TNPP 在 2030 年前实现商业化做好准备。Prodigy

的 TNPP 在合格的海事设施中制造,然后运输到现场,提供快速部署解决方案,以更快、更具竞争力的成本将新的核电投入运营。TNPP 占用的海岸线空间非常小,并且可以根据反应堆类型和规模进行定制。与Serco的合作正在测试全方位的分层对抗措施,以确保核电站免受空中、陆地和水面的威胁。Prodigy

正在完成将TNPP按计划推向北美市场所需的实际工作。我们的技术现已达到适当的准备水平,可以与经验丰富的合作伙伴进行详细的工程演练。Prodigy清洁能源总裁兼首席执行官Mathias Trojer表示:“Serco的世界级专业知识确保Prodigy实现其首要任务——确保设施安全可靠地运行,维护当地社区和环境的安全。”

Serco在管理军用和民用船舶的大规模采购和生产项目方面拥有数十年的经验,并为加拿大、英国、澳大利亚和美国海军提供设计现代化和维护服务。该公司丰富的海事和国防背景将有助于推动Prodigy实现下一个里程碑,即完成微反应器TNPP的基础设计。


开发Prodigy TNPP是一项复杂的演习,融合了海上制造、运输和场地准备实践,以及民用核能建设和运营的要求。Serco正在测试TNPP在最具挑战性的条件下的弹性和结构性能,包括飞机撞击和船舶碰撞;地震、冰冻和其他恶劣天气和海洋事件;火灾和洪水;以及抵御内部和外部物理威胁(包括导弹撞击)的坚固性。该测试项目展示了Prodigy的缓解设计措施如何在紧急情况下,即使在偏远和北极部署条件下,也能保持安全系统完好无损并控制放射性物质。Serco

加拿大海事总经理Russell Peters表示:“Serco很荣幸能将其设计和工程能力以及久经考验、经过任务测试的纵深防御技术带到Prodigy的TNPP项目中。这些创新设施将扩大民用核能的部署,为偏远社区、工业和沿海地区提供清洁、经济且可靠的能源。”


Serco 的工作得到了劳氏船级社 (Lloyd’s Register)、Kinectrics、Risktec 和 C-Job Naval Architects 等其他公司的补充,这些公司都是 Prodigy TNPP 开发联盟的成员。Prodigy

低功率输出 TNPP 的应用包括为偏远矿山、社区、国防设施和北极数据中心提供无碳基荷电力。Serco 的参与为端到端发电厂生命周期管理提供了强大的加拿大技术和工程支持。

Serco and Prodigy Clean Energy Partner on Transportable Nuclear Power Plant Development

Source: www.gulfoilandgas.com 5/13/2025, Location: North America

Prodigy Clean Energy and Serco announced progress on a prototypical test program demonstrating the robustness of Prodigy’s Transportable Nuclear Power Plants (TNPPs) to resist accidental and threat scenarios. Funded in part by a (CAD) $2,750,000 Government of Canada award to Prodigy under the Natural Resources Canada (NRCan) Enabling SMRs program, this first-of-its-kind effort is generating critical data needed to support licensing and public engagement, as Prodigy prepares TNPPs to enter commercialization by 2030.

Fabricated at a qualified maritime facility then transported to site, Prodigy’s TNPPs provide rapid deployment solutions to bring new nuclear power online sooner and at competitive costs. TNPPs require a very small shoreline footprint and are customizable by reactor type and size. The partnership with Serco is testing 360-degree layered countermeasures to secure the nuclear plant from air, land and water.

“Prodigy is completing the real work needed to bring TNPPs to market in North America on schedule. Our technologies are now at a suitable level of readiness to engage sophisticated partners on detailed engineering exercises. Serco’s world class expertise ensures that Prodigy achieves its top priority – that facilities operate safely and securely, safeguarding and protecting local communities and the environment,” said Mathias Trojer, President and CEO of Prodigy Clean Energy.

Serco has decades of experience managing large-scale procurement and production programs for military and civilian vessels, and provides design modernization and sustainment services to the Navies of Canada, the U.K., Australia and the U.S. The company’s extensive maritime and defence background will help drive Prodigy’s next milestone to complete the microreactor TNPP basic design.


Developing a Prodigy TNPP is a complex exercise merging maritime fabrication, transport and site preparation practices, with requirements for civil nuclear construction and operation. Serco is testing TNPP resilience and structural performance under the most challenging conditions, including against aircraft impact and ship collision; seismic, ice, and other severe weather and ocean events; fire and flooding; and for robustness to withstand internal and external physical threat scenarios, including missile impacts. The test program demonstrates how Prodigy’s mitigating design measures keep safety systems intact and contain radioactive materials under emergency situations, even in remote and arctic deployment conditions.

Russell Peters, General Manager of Serco Canada Marine, said, “Serco is proud to bring its design and engineering capabilities, and proven, mission-tested defence in depth know-how to Prodigy’s TNPP program. These innovative facilities will expand civil nuclear deployment, supplying clean, affordable and reliable energy to remote communities and industry, and coastal regions.”


Work performed by Serco is complemented by others such as Lloyd’s Register, Kinectrics, Risktec and C-Job Naval Architects who are part of the Prodigy TNPP development consortium.

Applications for Prodigy’s lower power output TNPPs include supplying carbon-free baseload to remote mines, communities, defence installations and arctic data centers. Serco’s participation anchors strong Canadian-based technical and engineering support for end-to-end power plant lifecycle management.
