Small modular reactors, designed for AI data centers, are advancing in the U.S. with government support and could deploy by the mid-2030s.
Small modular reactors (SMRs), designed to power AI-driven data centers, offer a compact, factory-built alternative to traditional nuclear plants.
At about 9 feet across and 18 feet tall, they generate up to 300 megawatts—enough for 200,000 homes—and can be transported and assembled in two to three years.
Using high-assay low-enriched uranium and passive safety systems, SMRs reduce accident risks and waste.
The U.S. Department of Energy is supporting domestic fuel production, with nearly a ton produced since 2023 under a $120 million contract extended in mid-2025.
While demonstration projects may begin before 2030, full deployment is expected by the mid-2030s, pending resolution of regulatory, staffing, and waste management challenges.
Pequeños reactores modulares, diseñados para centros de datos de IA, están avanzando en los EE.UU. con el apoyo del gobierno y podrían desplegarse a mediados de la década de 2030.
