NuScale Power is a Portland, Oregon-based small modular reactor (SMR) company developing the NuScale Power Module (NPM), a 77 MWe pressurized light-water reactor that is the first — and to date one of only two — SMR designs to receive design approval from the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission. Originally certified in 2020 at 50 MWe and uprated to 77 MWe under the US460 Standard Design Approval issued by the NRC on May 29, 2025, the NPM is delivered as a factory-fabricated, rail-shippable cylindrical containment vessel using passive natural-circulation safety features. Its commercial offering, the VOYGR SMR power plant, is sold in 4-, 6-, and 12-module configurations (308, 462, and 924 MWe respectively) and is targeted at utilities, data centers, hydrogen production, district heating, desalination, and industrial process heat. NuScale traces its origins to Oregon State University research begun in 2000 and was formally founded in 2007; Fluor Corporation became majority investor in 2011. The company went public on the NYSE in 2022 (ticker SMR) through a SPAC merger with Spring Valley Acquisition Corp., becoming the first publicly traded pure-play SMR vendor. NuScale partners exclusively with ENTRA1 Energy for global commercialization and operates Energy Exploration (E2) Centers — full control-room simulators hosted at Oregon State University, Texas A&M, the University of Idaho, and SNU in South Korea — for operator and regulator training. The high-profile Utah Associated Municipal Power Systems (UAMPS) Carbon Free Power Project at Idaho National Laboratory was terminated in November 2023 after costs rose from $58 to $89/MWh and subscription targets fell short, leaving NuScale without a first-of-a-kind US deployment and prompting a focus on data-center, industrial, and international (Romania RoPower, Poland KGHM, Ghana, Standard Power) opportunities. NuScale's revenue model is power-module sales/leasing, EPC services, and plant lifecycle services — there is no public developer API, SDK, or open-source release. NPM design data, topical reports, and safety analysis are conveyed through NRC docket filings and topical reports rather than a developer portal.
