First Steps into a New Nuclear Energy World
Earlier this month, NuScale Power, LLC, announced the submission of the first-ever small modular reactor (SMR) design certification application (DCA) to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC). As both a NuScale employee and a nuclear advocate, I could not be more excited! I joined NuScale a little over two years ago, and my colleagues and I have been working with almost a single-minded purpose to complete the DCA. Having reached that milestone, we're all very excited and celebrating. But I believe everyone in the industry can share in the excitement of this innovative, first of its kind, submission.
