We are currently developing the next generation of nuclear power stations for the UK. Our aim is to build and operate two Advanced Boiling Water Reactor plants in North Wales and South Gloucestershire.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The first of these proposed nuclear power plants will be Wylfa Newydd<\/a> on the north coast of Anglesey, near the village of Cemaes and next to the former Magnox Wylfa nuclear power station. The second site we\u2019re proposing is near Oldbury-on-Severn<\/a> in South Gloucestershire, near to Thornbury and next to the former Magnox Oldbury nuclear power station.<\/p>\n

Technology\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Advanced Boiling Water Reactors (ABWRs)<\/strong>
\nAs one of the world\u2019s most popular types of nuclear power generation, boiling water reactors provide a reliable form of electricity production. They work by generating steam inside the reactor which is then passed to the turbine, simplifying the process of energy production.<\/p>\n

The modular design developed by Hitachi makes ABWRs simpler to construct and easier to operate, while the efficient turbine technology offers reliable electricity generation.<\/p>\n

Hitachi’s ABWR the world\u2019s first \u2018Generation III+\u2019 reactor in operation \u2013 provides the highest level of safety and security. This latest design has increased the power generation capacity of the reactor while also decreasing its size \u2013 reducing its overall footprint.<\/p>\n

Since the introduction of boiling water reactor technology, Hitachi has participated in the design, development and construction of over 20 nuclear power plants in Japan alone.<\/p>\n

With enhanced reliability and safety features, Hitachi\u2019s \u2018Generation III+\u2019 Advanced Boiling Water Reactors (ABWRs) are the most advanced reactors in commercial operation in the world today.<\/p>\n

As experts in nuclear power generation technology, Hitachi has also developed advanced methods of construction. By assembling plant components at dedicated factories and transporting them\u00a0directly to the site,\u00a0Hitachi effectively shortens work periods and raises the level of quality assurance.<\/p>\n

Generic Design Assessment<\/strong><\/p>\n

In 2017 the UK ABWR completed an extensive Generic Design Assessment (GDA). This rigorous, UK-specific process scrutinises reactor technology and ensures that the safety case for the technology is robust. This comprehensive technology assessment carried out by the Office for Nuclear Regulation<\/a> and the Environment Agency<\/a>, determined that the UK ABWR technology was appropriate to move to the site-specific licensing stage.<\/p>\n

No nuclear reactor can be built in the UK unless the regulators are completely satisfied that it can operate safely.<\/p>\n

The ABWR is a proven international technology which gave us confidence it would be considered suitable for use in the UK. It and has now been successfully built and operated in four locations \u2013 to time and budget. Completion of GDA for the UK ABWR means the design has now achieved approvals under four different regulatory regimes worldwide.<\/p>\n

Ein Prosiect<\/p>\n

Rydym wrthi\u2019n datblygu’r genhedlaeth nesaf o orsafoedd p\u0175er niwclear ar gyfer y Deyrnas Unedig. Ein nod yw adeiladu a gweithredu dwy orsaf ag Adweithyddion D\u0175r Berwedig Uwch yng ngogledd Cymru a de Swydd Gaerloyw.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Y cyntaf o’r safleoedd ynni niwclear arfaethedig hyn fydd Wylfa Newydd<\/a> ar arfordir gogleddol Ynys M\u00f4n, ger pentref Cemaes ac wrth ymyl hen orsaf b\u0175er niwclear Magnox yn Wylfa. Mae\u2019r ail safle arfaethedig ger Oldbury-on-Severn<\/a> yn ne Swydd Gaerloyw, ger Thornbury ac wrth ymyl hen orsaf b\u0175er niwclear Magnox yn Oldbury<\/p>\n

Technoleg<\/p>\n

Adweithyddion D\u0175r Berwedig Uwch (ABWR) <\/strong><\/p>\n

Fel un o\u2019r ffyrdd mwyaf poblogaidd o gynhyrchu ynni niwclear yn y byd, mae adweithyddion d\u0175r berwedig yn darparu ffurf ddibynadwy o gynhyrchu trydan. Maen nhw\u2019n gweithio drwy gynhyrchu st\u00eam y tu mewn i’r adweithydd, sydd wedyn yn cael ei drosglwyddo i’r tyrbin, gan symleiddio’r broses o gynhyrchu ynni.<\/p>\n

Mae’r dyluniad modiwlaidd a ddatblygwyd gan Hitachi yn gwneud ABWR yn symlach i\u2019w hadeiladu ac yn haws eu gweithredu, tra bod y dechnoleg tyrbinau effeithlon yn cynnig ffordd ddibynadwy o gynhyrchu trydan.<\/p>\n

Mae ABWR Hitachi – adweithydd \u2018Cenhedlaeth III+\u2019 cyntaf y byd sydd ar waith \u2013 yn darparu\u2019r lefel uchaf o ddiogelwch a sicrwydd. Mae\u2019r cynllun diweddaraf wedi cynyddu capasiti cynhyrchu p\u0175er yr adweithydd gan hefyd leihau ei faint – a thrwy hynny leihau ei \u00f4l troed cyffredinol.<\/p>\n

Ers cyflwyno technoleg adweithyddion d\u0175r berwedig, mae Hitachi wedi cymryd rhan mewn dylunio, datblygu ac adeiladu dros 20 o orsafoedd ynni niwclear yn Japan yn unig.<\/p>\n

Gyda gwell nodweddion dibynadwyedd a diogelwch, Adweithyddion D\u0175r Berwedig Uwch ‘Cenhedlaeth III+’ Hitachi (ABWR) yw’r adweithyddion mwyaf datblygedig sydd ar waith yn fasnachol yn y byd heddiw.<\/p>\n

Fel arbenigwyr mewn technoleg cynhyrchu ynni niwclear, mae Hitachi hefyd wedi datblygu dulliau blaengar o adeiladu. Drwy gydosod cydrannau gorsafoedd mewn ffatr\u00efoedd ymroddedig a\u2019u cludo\u2019n uniongyrchol i\u2019r safle, mae Hitachi yn byrhau cyfnodau gwaith yn effeithiol ac yn codi lefel y sicrwydd ansawdd.<\/p>\n

Asesiad Dyluniad Generig<\/strong><\/p>\n

Yn 2017, cwblhaodd UK ABWR Asesiad Dyluniad Generig (GDA) helaeth. Mae\u2019r broses drylwyr hon, sy\u2019n benodol i\u2019r Deyrnas Unedig, yn craffu ar dechnoleg adweithyddion ac yn sicrhau bod yr achos diogelwch dros y dechnoleg yn un cadarn. Daeth yr asesiad cynhwysfawr hwn o dechnoleg, a gynhaliwyd gan y Swyddfa Rheoleiddio Niwclear ac Asiantaeth yr Amgylchedd, i\u2019r casgliad bod technoleg UK ABWR yn addas i symud ymlaen i\u2019r cam trwyddedu safle-benodol.<\/p>\n

Ni fydd yr un adweithydd niwclear yn cael ei adeiladu yn y Deyrnas Unedig os nad yw\u2019r rheoleiddwyr yn gwbl fodlon y gall weithredu\u2019n ddiogel.<\/p>\n

Mae ABWR yn dechnoleg ryngwladol sydd wedi\u2019i phrofi a oedd yn ein gwneud yn hyderus y byddai\u2019n cael ei hystyried yn addas i\u2019w defnyddio yn y Deyrnas Unedig. Ac mae bellach wedi cael ei hadeiladu a\u2019i gweithredu\u2019n llwyddiannus mewn pedwar lleoliad \u2013 a hynny\u2019n unol \u00e2\u00b4r amserlen a\u2019r gyllideb. Mae cwblhau GDA ar gyfer UK ABWR yn golygu bod y dyluniad bellach wedi cael cymeradwyaeth o dan bedair trefn reoleiddio wahanol ar draws y byd<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
