The results of a comparative analysis of the materials and technical-economic indices of a nuclear power system with open and closed fuel cycles are presented. A full account is given of the validation and the conditions for transitioning to a two-component nuclear power system with a closed nuclear fuel cycle with thermal and fast reactors.
