MARINA (marine molten-salt reactor)
KAERI's marine molten-salt reactor for ship propulsion, designed at about 100 MWth and 35 MWe (KAERI presentation reported June 2026). A container-ship concept with two MARINA units received ABS approval in principle in July 2026; that is a design milestone, not a deployment. KAERI's own page naming MARINA could not be opened.
