Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Ltd. was selected in 2023 as a “core company” for the demonstration reactor development project of the High Temperature Gas-cooled Reactor (HTGR) for hydrogen production. The start of demonstration reactor operations in the 2030s was indicated in the technology roadmap presented by Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry. This presentation outlines the current status of the design concept study for the realization of the demonstration reactor.
