10,000,000,000… the human population by the year 2050
... 3 billion cars, doubled electricity consumption (and this is only 30 years from now)
No renewable can meet the gap in energy demand.
Renewables have a place in power generation, but no renewable can meet the gap in demand. Fourth generation nuclear will be required to cleanly meet our future energy needs — and the power is always on.
Nuclear, the only deployable anywhere baseload that’s carbon-free
The only baseload that’s carbon-free, and the only carbon-free technology that can be baseload. We are building carbon-free baseload power that works on its own and also makes carbon-free renewables viable, in a positive domino chain of sustainability.
Our flagship reactor design, the small modular reactor 75MWe Xe-100, aims to serve either as a baseload or as load-following support for intermittent renewable sources like solar and wind.
