DesignThe company's lead reactor design name(s) as the company or its regulator names them; semicolon-separated when it markets more than one.
Jimmy high-temperature heat generator (INB Fermi) 1
TypeReactor coolant/technology family. Gas-cooled fast is separated from thermal HTGR designs; sodium-cooled includes both fast and thermal-spectrum designs.
HTGR 1
Size classDerived from published electric output per module: Micro is 20 MWe or less, Small is above 20 and up to 300 MWe, Medium is above 300 MWe. Legacy heat-only classifications use one third of thermal output as an explicit comparison convention, not a claimed electric rating.
Micro 1
MWe / module MWeNet (or gross where only gross is published) electric output of one reactor module as the company or its regulator publishes it. Null for heat-only designs.
Not published
MWt / module MWtThermal output of one reactor module as published by the company or its regulator.

Licensing stageFurthest licensing milestone reached with any national regulator: Operating; Construction licensed (construction permit or licence issued); DOE test authorization (a test reactor authorized or built under the US Department of Energy, for example the Reactor Pilot Program or the DOME test bed); Construction under review (construction, site or creation application filed); Design approved (design certification, standard design approval or GDA completed); Design review (formal design review under way, such as UK GDA, CNSC vendor design review or a French safety-options review); Pre-licensing (pre-application engagement only).
