Fincantieri, newcleo and Pininfarina have unveiled the look of the next-generation sustainable nuclear generator for maritime applications.
The look of newcleo’s fourth-generation lead-cooled fast reactor has been revelated at International Architecture Exhibition of the Venice Biennale.
Combining technological vision, industrial expertise, and cutting-edge design, the three companies have collaborated to redefine the image of nuclear energy. Visitors are invited reimagine their preconceptions of nuclear power as they embark on a highly interactive journey exploring the extraordinary potential of atomic fission in combating climate change and decarbonizing human activities.
At the heart of the collaborative project, housed within Venice's historic Corderie dell'Arsenale, stands a full-scale reproduction of the TL-40 liquid lead-cooled nuclear reactor designed by newcleo, a safe, sustainable, and compact reactor specifically engineered for powering large maritime vessels and to produce energy in off-grid and isolated areas.
Guided through an immersive experience, visitors will discover the functioning of the reactor, its ability to burn waste produced by traditional nuclear power plants, and its passive safety features that make it the ideal solution for powering energy-intensive human activities in a sustainable and decarbonized manner.
Visitors are presented with a reactor designed in an open configuration, allowing complete visibility from every angle
