U.S. Air Force opens power reactor RFI
The U.S. Air Force wants to hear from companies that could be interested in deploying small nuclear reactors at its bases.
The request for information posted Wednesday intends to assist the federal government in identifying potential developers and “understanding the company’s capability to design, license, fuel, construct, and deploy Small, Micro, or Modular Reactor (SMR) technologies in compliance with applicable regulatory, safety, environmental, and security requirements.”
