Research & Development
Advancing Nuclear Technology
Since 2012, we have engaged in more than 20 university research projects. We also partner with several state-of-the-art facilities around the world to perform cutting edge testing on our small modular reactor (SMR) technology.
Data from these tests is used to:
- Validate our thermal-hydraulic and design computer models for predicting the thermal efficiency, performance, and safety of the NuScale Power Module™
- Validate our reactor design
- Gain manufacturing, assembly, and material handling insights
Additionally, we have more than 500 patents granted or pending in 21 countries throughout North America, Europe, and Asia.
