Advanced nuclear reactors

Next-generation nuclear power technologies that are typically smaller, safer, and more efficient than traditional large nuclear power plants.

Resilient energy

An energy system designed to withstand and recover quickly from disruptions, ensuring a continuous power supply even during outages from the main grid.

Critical infrastructure

Essential facilities, systems, and assets (like power plants, communication networks, or water treatment plants) whose destruction or incapacitation would have a debilitating effect on security, national economic security, or public health or safety.

Small modular reactor (SMR)

A type of nuclear reactor designed to be factory-fabricated and transported to a site for installation, typically producing up to 300 megawatts of electricity.

Micro-reactor

A very small nuclear reactor, typically designed to produce less than 50 megawatts of thermal energy, suitable for remote locations or specific facilities like military bases.

Office of Strategic Capital

An office within the Department of Defense focused on attracting and scaling private capital for technologies critical to national security.
