Our Modular Power Plant
Our nuclear power plants are designed to be manufactured in shipyards, where a permanent workforce and automated machinery reduce cost and build time.
Enhanced safety
Blue Energy uses mature light water reactors and the latest passive safety advancements to create a plant that is 100% walk-away safe. The reactor building is submerged in a pool that provides additional physical protection and backup cooling.
Designed for mass production
The reactor and passive safety functions are fully isolated from the rest of the power plant, allowing the turbine hall and other non-nuclear systems to be manufactured in non-nuclear shipyards.
Land and expand deployments
Thanks to centralized manufacturing and a small plant footprint, a site can start with just a single reactor, and additional reactors can be added over time.
Our Bottom Line
Shrinking energy costs
Our modular design and centralized manufacturing make nuclear power cost competitive with fossil fuels and renewables.
