Elementl plans Ohio nuclear plant; Oklo, Centrus sign Ohio-centered LOI
Nuclear project developer Elementl Power announced June 18 its plans to build a nuclear power plant in southeast Ohio with a planned capacity of up to 1.5 GW.
Elementl already has a reactor design in mind, having reached an early works agreement with GE Vernova Hitachi to deploy the company's BWRX-300 small modular reactors. According to Elementl, construction on the first unit could begin in 2030—subject to a final investment decision and regulatory approvals—with an anticipated completion date of 2034.

On May 23, 2025, President Trump issued two Executive Order (EO) 14301, directing the Department of Energy (DOE) and Secretary of Energy to change DOE processes and activities to more quickly support the deployment of new nuclear technology in this country and reform nuclear energy testing and research activities within the Department. How developers and national labs look to transform these processes and break new ground is high in the interests of everyone thinking about the future of nuclear energy in this country and understanding perspectives from those directly involved will be paramount. As the DOE takes on these dramatic challenges, vendors, national labs, government staff, and numerous parties will all have to work in concert to achieve success and change.
