IPHWR-220

The IPHWR-220 (Indian Pressurized Heavy Water Reactor-220) is an Indian pressurized heavy-water reactor designed by the Bhabha Atomic Research Centre. It is a Generation II reactor developed from earlier CANDU based RAPS-1 and RAPS-2 reactors built at Rawatbhata, Rajasthan. It can generate 220 MW of electricity. Currently, there are 14 units operational at various locations in India. It is being used as a base for designing the Bharat small modular reactor (BSMR), for captive use by companies.

The IPHWR design was later expanded into 540 MW and 700 MW designs, as well as the AHWR-300 design.
