Did a quick research on PHWR as its stands today in the world.

Only India is actively building (5 x 630MW) and planning more (8 x 630 MW) reactors of this design type (PHWR).... with the current series known as IPHWR-700.

Romania has 2 planned, but these are restarting unfinished projects ordered from Canada (CANDU-6) in thee 1980s, they operate 2.
