Deployable Energy received a major financial push from Solaris Energy Infrastructure, Inc. Solaris bought a stake in the company and the two are now teaming up to get Deployable Energy’s portable nuclear microreactors out into the market.

In an announcement, Solaris stated that it has “made an equity investment in Deployable Energy, providing early exposure to next-generation nuclear technology” and that it “will work with Deployable on commercialization of their SMR technology, complementing our existing generation capabilities.”

Defense bases, heavy industrial sites, and massive data centers need constant, reliable electricity. There is simply too much on the line for them to lose power. And that’s why it matters when a company like Solaris gets involved. They already know how to set up and run power grids for tough jobs. Now, they want to pair their everyday power systems with Deployable Energy’s transportable nuclear tech.

Bobby Gallagher, CEO and Co-Founder of Deployable Energy, believes this is a significant move for the industry.

“We’re excited to welcome Solaris as both an investor and strategic collaborator,” said Bobby Gallagher, CEO and Co-Founder of Deployable Energy. “Solaris has established itself as a leader in delivering reliable power infrastructure for demanding applications. Their investment and commercial perspective validate the growing need for next-generation energy solutions that combine resilience, scalability, and long-duration performance. The collaboration with Solaris represents an important step for Deployable Energy in building an ecosystem of strategic partners that can help accelerate the commercial deployment.”

Building New Ideas

When it comes to new energy ideas, most companies do a lot of talking but not enough building. Solaris believes this partnership is different. The company appreciates that Deployable Energy is moving fast and finding ways to avoid supply chain delays.

“Deployable Energy brings real world execution to a technology the market has talked about for years but few have delivered,” said Bill Zartler, Founder and Co-CEO of Solaris Energy Infrastructure. “The speed they’ve shown getting to first criticality, their differentiated design and approach to avoiding supply chain constraints, gives us confidence that the Deployable Energy team can turn next-generation nuclear products into reality in the relatively near term. We’re excited to be part of this story.”
