Mini Reactors Are Going Places and Pack a Lot of Power

NuGen launches self-funded entrepreneurial effort to develop a 20 MWe mini reactor with an eye on its potential use to power landing sites on the Moon and Mars. It also has plans for terrestrial applications.
URENCO U-Battery takes next step in Canadian National Lab SMR program. U-Battery is a 4 MWe high-temperature gas-cooled micro nuclear reactor
OKLO is engaged with NRC in pre-licensing meetings. The firm is developing a 2 MWe fast reactor using U-Zr metal fuel (HALEU) based on the fuel in EBR-II
