I don't know of a production NPP that isn't a PWR or BWR online today. One could exist but it would be very very old.

Came online ~10 years ago. One could quibble about design and construction timelines; the reactor is still half-experimental, and the Russians are conducting that breeder program very slowly. But it's not a 1980s design frozen in time.

Is the article about a production power plant?
