Technical features and technological approaches that support proliferation resistance of innovative SMRs 

All NPPs with innovative SMRs will provide for the implementation of the established safeguards verification procedures under the agreements of Member States with the IAEA. In addition to this, many innovative SMRs offer certain intrinsic proliferation resistance features to prevent the misuse, diversion or undeclared production of fissile materials and/ or to facilitate the implementation of safeguards. A short review of these features for different SMR types is given in Sections 4.5.1 -4.5.2 below.
