Description

Description

DL E&C signed a contract with U.S. small modular reactor (SMR) company X-energy for an SMR standardized design. The contract is worth approximately $10 million, with plans to complete the design by the first half of 2027. This is the first time a domestic construction company has directly undertaken SMR standardized design work. The design involves modularization to improve construction efficiency and reduce costs, and will be applied starting with the first unit scheduled for operation in 2030. DL E&C will handle engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC), while its affiliate DL Energy will manage project development, investment, power generation, and operations.
