Description (French)
L'objectif du projet est de mettre au point un nouveau réacteur à noyau d'air « intelligent », qui est un élément clé du réseau électrique. Le projet vise à mettre au point un procédé d'installation du système de détection distribué par fibres optiques tFITs d'Hyperion, lequel permettra pour la première fois de surveiller intégralement l'ensemble du réacteur, le rendant ainsi intelligent dans le cadre d'un réseau intelligent.
