TerraPower Natrium (Kemmerer, Wyoming)
A 345 MWe sodium-cooled fast reactor with molten salt storage, under construction in Kemmerer, Wyoming.
- Type
- Programme
- Where it sits
- It is a regulator-cleared advanced reactor with storage that could in time supply large loads, though it is not itself a data centre project.
- Constraint
- A separate NRC operating licence is still required before the plant can run, and completion is targeted for 2030 (US DOE).
What we checked
- The NRC issued a construction permit on 9 March 2026, described by DOE as the first for a commercial non-light-water power reactor. (source)
- The plant is 345 MWe and can boost output to 500 MW using molten salt storage. (source)
