This is science-fiction upto now. No fast breeder nuclear reactor in the world has produced more energy than it has used, and it will be like this for any foreseeable future. Pretending the opposite is just propaganda.

BN-600 has been kicking out 600MW of electricity for over 2 a decades.
You have to take into account energy used for research, building the reactor, for fluel production and reprocessing, and the future energy used for dismantling the plant. When this is accounted, very little is left if any for a single reactor. The interest of fast breeder reactor is really for producing military grade plutonium. Energy is at best a by-product.
