NAAREA and Dassault Systèmes, Accelerating Fourth-Generation Micro-Reactors with the Virtual Twin

NAAREA is developing a new generation of fast-neutron, molten-salt micro-reactors that run on long-life nuclear waste, and the 3DEXPERIENCE platform is central to bringing this vision to life. By building a full virtual twin in only 18 months, the company accelerates design, strengthens safety and regulatory readiness and creates a unified digital backbone for the reactor’s entire lifecycle. This article explores how NAAREA uses model-based engineering and digital continuity to transform innovation into deployable clean-energy solutions.
