A world-class campus for
innovation in clean energy
Infrastructure to support the development, testing and commercialization of novel clean energy technologies are not readily available globally. Advanced nuclear technologies in particular require specialized test conditions to support development and regulatory approval, and there are currently very few suitable facilities to support their testing and deployment. It will take collaboration and a shared vision to remove these roadblocks and develop the clean energy solutions needed to power Canada’s future. That’s why Kinectrics is bringing Canada’s leading research universities together with energy industry and technology development pioneers to create Helius, a world-class campus for innovation.
Helius will unite top-tier Canadian academic institutions,
industrial leaders, small modular reactor developers, and utilities to advance
clean energy technologies that combat climate change and alleviate global
energy poverty. The cornerstone of this innovation campus is a 10 MW,
electrically heated, helium test loop for the development, testing, and
qualification of materials, components, and systems utilized in high
temperature gas reactors. Secondary loops mimic the actual usage of
technologies to be married with advanced nuclear reactors, including:
