The CANDU (CANadian Deuterium Uranium), introduced by Atomic Energy of Canada Limited (AECL) in 1962, is among the safest and most innovative nuclear reactors in the world, able to run on a variety of fuels including unenriched natural uranium. Unfortunately, its high up-front construction cost prevented more than a handful of international sales from being made.
