TN Eagle: Storage & Transport New Generation Cask

Ensure the safe transport and interim dry storage of spent nuclear fuel with a new-generation modular package solution.
    • Improve operational responsiveness across your nuclear facilities
    • Easily integrate a reliable cask into your existing infrastructures
    • Adapt to a wide variety of spent fuel assemblies and interim storage configurations
    • Reduce licensing, manufacturing, and delivery lead times

  • The TN Eagle has been designed from the outset to meet the operational and regulatory needs of nuclear operators.

    • Weld-free, no machining design with reduced number of components: faster, more reliable manufacturing with minimal industrial constraints, enabling up to 100 years of safe dry storage
    • Forged shell and thickened lids with high-performance metal seals, neutron shielding with VYAL resin for optimal containment
    • Modular and scalable design: the TN Eagle adapts to any BWR or PWR fuel assemblies and their thermal loads, as well as your loading constraints
    • Dual-purpose license (transport+storage) : regulatory approval simplification, time savings on procedures and reduced risk of reclassification
    • Automated Factory 4.0 dedicated to assembly-production line: a controlled, reproducible manufacturing cycle and assembly leadtimes of less than 4 months
    • Delivery lead times of approximately one year after order placement

    The TN Eagle propose a high-perfomance answer to your safety, technical, and scheduling requirements
