Nuclear reactors convert one third of the heat they produce into electricity. The remaining heat is released to the environment, which could be harnessed to meet process heat demands. 👇

📅 Westinghouse had the privilege of hosting guests from U.S. Department of Energy and Idaho National Lab to tour our eVinci™ Technologies Headquarters. We appreciated your thoughts on what it will take to power a sustainable, #CleanEnergy future and can’t wait for the eVinci microreactor to be part of it.

OUT OF THIS WORLD? US Nuclear Corp is developing Pylon — a 1-megawatt, 10-ton-class microreactor that can generate electrical and thermal power on earth and in space!   It’s 1 of 3 designs that could potentially test in our DOME test bed as early as 2026.

JUST FLIP IT: Boston Atomics is developing this horizontal high-temperature gas reactor that will be optimized for fast, straight-forward construction. The horizontal design is expected to have a building size five times smaller than typical vertically-oriented gas reactors.
