The future of clean energy is taking shape.
Doosan Enerbility has commenced the forging production process for the first module that will be deployed as part of a NuScale VOYGR-6™
#SMR
power plant for the Carbon Free Power Project.
Over 150 U.S. coal plants are set to retire by 2040. Repurposing those plants as NuScale VOYGR™ power plants could generate 2 billion labor hours of construction, preserve or create 50k power plant jobs, 46k manufacturing jobs, and eliminate 1.4 billion tons of CO2 per year.
Over 300 million people globally rely on desalinated water. One NuScale Power Module™ can produce 77 million gallons of drinking water per day, and a 4-module VOYGR™
#SMR
power plant could provide all of the water for a city the size of Cape Town, South Africa.
#PowerToTheWorld
On Friday July 29, the U.S. NRC voted unanimously to approve the design certification of the NuScale
#SMR
design. NuScale is the only SMR vendor to submit an application for design approval by the NRC, and the only SMR design approved by the NRC.
"The company’s chief financial officer, Chris Colbert, said former coal plants are ideal locations for advanced nuclear technology, in part because transmission lines are already in place."
