EnergyHQ Advanced Nuclear Reactor and Data Center Colocation

EnergyHQ will partner with Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL). The project will use the Oak Ridge Siting Analysis for power Generation Expansion (OR-SAGE) tool to supplement EnergyHQ’s existing criteria for siting data centers. The result will be the identification of multiple sites, which are technology-agnostic, that could support site selection strategies for data centers. EnergyHQ can then work to develop those sites for nuclear and data center development.

Lead-Bismuth Small Modular Reactor (SMR) Licensing Development; Methodology for Meeting Containment System Principal Design Criteria for Heavy Metal Fast Reactor systems, Columbia Basin Consulting Group

The objective of this project was to review Columbia Basin Consulting Group (CBCG)’s design concept for a leadbismuth-cooled fast reactor and thereafter to determine how the design might benefit from the functional containment concept, which allows the designer to take credit for a sequence of barriers to contain or confine radionuclides.
