The Small Modular Reactor emerges as a recommended technology for nuclear power plant (NPP) development in West Kalimantan, particularly at the Pantai Gosong site. NPP demand highly purified water cooling system, while seawater contains high TDS, so desalination by utilizing heat and from NPP, offers viable solution. Additionally, products can supply freshwater to communities within 10 km radius, including Sungai Raya Island Districts. This study aims determine techno-economic aspect of cogeneration with SMR-type Kalimantan. methodologies this research encompass comprehensive literature review, qualitative assessment technology, quantitative economic analysis DEEP version 5.1. Techno-economic shows that simple payback period MED is 12.3 years, MSF 13.9 years. Power lost 5.3 MWe, 9.1 MWe. At temperature 30.7 °C, total cost $1.277 $/m3, $1.595 $/m3. 70 °C be effective using residual an energy source. Cogeneration option utilization context
