Back to the Basics

For over half a century the U.S. has powered millions of homes and businesses using low enriched uranium oxide fuel and light water reactor technology. The challenge is not in expertise, but in scale. Big plants mean big upfront investments and big production timelines.

Ultralith Energy was founded to help address one of the biggest challenges facing the SMR rollout; lower upfront capital costs to enable rapid scaling for datacentres and utilities.

How?

By tapping into existing, proven Light Water Reactor (LWR) technology for reduced licensing risk and design challenges.

We have two co-founders and a team of six other nuclear engineers, working to complete design of our reactor concept.
