Facts
Source per value- DesignThe company's lead reactor design name(s) as the company or its regulator names them; semicolon-separated when it markets more than one.
- NuScale US460 (NuScale Power Module) 1
- TypeReactor coolant/technology family. Gas-cooled fast is separated from thermal HTGR designs; sodium-cooled includes both fast and thermal-spectrum designs.
- LWR 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.
- Small 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.
- 77 1
- MWt / module MWtThermal output of one reactor module as published by the company or its regulator.
