Abstract
The paper dedicated to the development of a method for comparative assessment of innovative nuclear energy systems (INES), which are planned to be used in commercial scale. It is shown that the results of the evaluation of the effectiveness of INES essentially depend on the objective which focused the system (the economy, the maturity of the technology, fuel supply for large-scale development, waste management, etc).
