Slide 4: Problem
Problem For the first time in ~45 years, public support for nuclear power is producing growth. Demand for energy grows even faster. Can we rise to the challenge? https://www.pewresearch.org/short-reads/2025/10/16/support-for-expanding-nuclear-power-is-up-in-both-parties-since-2020/
Slide 5: The DATA: Electricity Generation Percent By Source In The USA
The DATA Electricity Generation Percent By Source In The USA Regardless of opinions, what has actually changed in US? The last five years show three main trends: Coal use in the US continues to decrease Total energy generated with nuclear decreased Wind & Solar power have increased 2020 2025 www.eia
Slide 6: What nuclear offers
What nuclear offers Nuclear must provide what Solar & Wind cannot Solar / Wind AI usage cares not for using only Wind / Solar 91% Nuclear power generation has a consistent and high availability Nuclear Nuclear in place of natural gas has an even bigger impact now 24% / 34% Solar / wind capacity fact
Slide 7: Nuclear MUST DELIVER
Nucear MUST DELIVER Nuclear fosters public confidence as our reactors operate quietly, consistently, and efficiently. Nuclear wins new support by reducing our historical reliance on water cooling; water availability is becoming contentious. As momentum builds, Nuclear support technology expansion wh
Slide 8: Change CAN BE good: Meeting the Market Needs
Change CAN BE good Meeting the Market Needs Customers Fitting reactor size with demand AP-1000* and BWRX-300** are well suited to densely populated grids, but too big for many communities. Licensing Pathway to approval and operation Work with the NRC and DOE to deploy reactor technologies quickly. T
Slide 9: Existing Technology
Existing Technology Accessible LEU+ Supply Qualified PWR Fuel Design Existing Supply Chain with many ASME Section III vendors Deep PWR operating experience, with +20,000 reactor-years Intentional Design Choices Fewer parts where possible Selecting “off-the-shelf” components with considerable operati
Slide 10: Established safety: Defense-In-Depth
Established safety Defense-In-Depth The idea has been developed over the years, improved, and tested. More recent innovations have addressed challenges encountered during Fukushima. The design of Halo-10 is intended to achieve stable shutdown condition without operators or external intervention.
Slide 11: The nuclear Fuel
The nuclear Fuel Modular Scalability Our 10MW requires a fraction of the land compared to wind and solar, making if the most space-efficient path to reliable decarbonization Extended Fuel Cycle Better flux control means reduced localized burnup, enabling longer fuel cycles and fewer outages for refu
Slide 12: Additional Safety
Available water to remove heat from the reactor is of critical importance Halo-10 units are designed to reduce loss of coolant accident impacts and the vault pool contains additional inventory if needed Additional Safety
Slide 13: Site-Agnostic
Site-Agnostic Air Cooled condensers need no water Interface with small or large grids, or it can be deployed behind-the-meter Multiple smaller units reduces the impact of maintenance or refueling
Slide 14: Industry Success
Industry Success A wide variety of nuclear technologies are needed to fulfill long-term energy needs The Halo-10 is designed to meet the near-term needs using existing technologies. As non-LWR technologies accumulate fleet-level operating experience, they can and will fill the long-term needs www.wo
Slide 15: Avoiding a history repeat
Avoiding a history repeat Spent LWR Fuel ~280,000 tons Spent LEU+ Fuel The new methods to process LEU fuel should apply here ~1000 tons There are LTAs presently being depleted in the USA. Includes naval & gov. sources. Spent HALEU Fuel A variety of fuel forms, but some have processing technology ~10
Slide 16: HALEU & LEU+ Spent Fuel: Challenges and Advantages
Challenges Advantages HALEU & LEU+ Spent Fuel Elevated burnup produces higher decay heat loads Few if any commercial spent fuel casks Limited decay heat curves for LEU+ and HALEU enrichment levels Residual U-235 available for reprocessing Fuel Processing innovations available for various fuel types
