A Recent Energy Partnership Will Consider Building Experimental Reactor
Two companies signed a Letter of Intent (LOI) to study a housing facility for a fast-spectrum liquid-fuel (molten salt) demonstration reactor.

The NRC’s approval will allow nuclear power plants to refuel every 24 months rather than every 18 months.


The plant features a 345-megawatt (MW) sodium-cooled fast reactor with an integrated molten salt-based energy storage system.


The proposed geothermal plant could provide 50 MW of clean, renewable electricity from only a handful of wells.
