New international partnership to speed Xe-100 SMR deployment
X-energy, Amazon, Korea Hydro & Nuclear Power, and Doosan Enerbility have formed a strategic partnership to accelerate the deployment of X-energy’s Xe-100 small modular reactors and TRISO fuel in the United States to meet the power demands from data centers and AI. The partners will collaborate in reactor engineering design, supply-chain development, construction planning, investment strategies, long-term operations, and global opportunities for joint AI-nuclear deployment. The companies also plan to jointly mobilize as much as $50 billion in public and private investment to support advanced nuclear energy in the U.S.

This paper describes the procedures for calculating parameters of hydrogen isotopes interaction with materials according to the results of experiments conducted by dynamic sorption methods under conditions of complex exposure. Using the proposed approach, we analyzed the data of reactor tests of a lithium capillary porous system based on a stainless steel matrix conducted under conditions of sample purging with deuterium (at a pressure of deuterium in the chamber ~10–2 to 10–4 Pa). The sample was irradiated at various temperatures (T = 180° to 550°) under conditions of oil-free pumping and with continuous mass spectrometric recording of the gas composition in the chamber.
