NuScale Power is a pioneering company in the nuclear energy sector, dedicated to designing innovative and safer nuclear power plants. The company's flagship product is the NuScale Power Module™ (NPM), a small modular reactor that integrates essential components into a single, factory-fabricated unit. Each NPM generates 77 megawatts of electricity, and a single NuScale plant can accommodate up to 12 modules, totaling 924 megawatts. NuScale emphasizes safety with its unique design that allows each module to automatically shut down and self-cool in case of a power loss, enhancing operational reliability. With a mission to improve the quality of life for all through advanced nuclear technology, NuScale Power is redefining the future of energy generation.
