NRC okays construction permits for Hermes 2 test facility
The Nuclear Regulatory Commission announced yesterday that it has directed staff to issue construction permits to Kairos Power for the company's proposed Hermes 2 nonpower test reactor facility to be built at the Heritage Center Industrial Park in Oak Ridge, Tenn. The permits authorize Kairos to build a facility with two 35-MWt test reactors that would use molten salt to cool the reactor cores.
2024 International Congress on Advances in Nuclear Power Plants (ICAPP) SPeaker
Founder of nuclear energy start-up Karnfull (“The World’s most Innovative Nuclear Start-Up” / WNE23) and an award-winning entrepreneur, marketeer and tech evangelist – with a knack for storytelling and building products and services that put the user experience center stage.
After 10+ years of management positions in FinTech with neobanks disrupting and improving the UX in traditional banking services, John decided to carry that mindset across into the carbon-free energy space to reboot the atomic era in Sweden and beyond.
With Karnfull he’s rapidly built a brand and company group that accelerates, popularises and enhances nuclear in order for it to play its pivotal role in the Nordic region reaching Paris goals.
Karnfull Energy is the digital-first electricity supplier disrupting Scandinavian markets with affordable, hourly-variable 100% nuclear tariffs. Karnfull Next is Europe’s first SMR project developer, establishing co-located SMR campuses across Sweden.
