The analysis focuses on the repowering of a 460 MW supercritical coal-fired unit in the Łagisza power plant with high temperature small modular nuclear reactors based on the 320MW design from Kairos.
The results show that retrofitting can reduce costs by up to 35% compared to greenfield investments and can be economically justified.
