NuScale Power is a publicly traded US developer of small modular reactors (SMRs), headquartered in Tigard, Oregon. Its NuScale Power Module is based on pressurized water-cooled reactor technology and was the first SMR design to receive US Nuclear Regulatory Commission design approval, in 2020. A 12-module plant can produce up to 924 MWe of carbon-free energy.
NuScale develops and markets the NuScale Power Module, an SMR for electricity generation, district heating, desalination, hydrogen production and other process heat.
