Canada's Terrestrial Energy said on 25 February that it is submitting its Integral Molten Salt Reactor (IMSR) design to the Canadian Nuclear Safety Commission (CNSC) for pre-licensing review - the first step towards an eventual licence application. Pre-licensing is not a required part of the licensing process for a new nuclear plant, but aims to verify the acceptability of a design with respect to Canadian nuclear regulatory requirements and expectations.
