TerraPower Natrium Nuclear Plant
Sector: Power Generation (CCGT) • Location: Kemmerer, Wyoming, United States
Source: GeekWire
TerraPower is building its first utility-scale, next-generation nuclear reactor in Kemmerer, Wyoming. The Natrium design pairs a small modular reactor (SMR) generating 345 megawatts with an integrated thermal battery that can surge output to 500 megawatts for over five hours. The project aims to produce power by 2030 near a retiring coal plant.
