One of the first commercial advanced nuclear technologies
TerraPower, GE Hitachi and Bechtel submitted a proposal based on the Natrium technology for the Department of Energy’s Advanced Reactor Demonstration Program. The technology will be demonstrated at full commercial scale, avoiding the need to transition from a small-scale prototype in order to become commercially viable. The demonstration plant is designed to be delivered in the next seven years. That means the Natrium technology will be available in the late 2020s, making it one of the first commercial advanced nuclear technologies.
With significant private investment behind it, the Natrium technology has unmatched financial credibility and an achievable funding strategy. The technology is right and the time is now. |
