TVA to file for Clinch River SMR construction permit by June
In a Q&A posted on TVA’s website last week about a “new nuclear heyday,” Bob Deacy shared his vision for the Clinch River nuclear site in Oak Ridge, Tenn.—and some news about next steps for the company’s small modular reactor plans.
The Tennessee Valley Authority’s senior vice president for the Clinch River project, Deacy described his vision for up to four SMRs built on plots smaller than a football field with state-of-the-art digital equipment and a newly trained workforce providing reliable 24/7 power to the grid.

Molten salt reactors (MSRs) offer significant safety and performance advantages as emerging advanced reactors. A number of commercial vendors are proceeding to develop and deploy MSRs in the U.S. for a broad range of applications. This panel will put the spotlight on contemporary efforts towards commercializing MSRs in the U.S. Panelists will share their thoughts on the technologies and discuss their views on the current market landscape and opportunities for MSRs, accounting for their licensing pathways.
