Game-changer??!!-----Deployable Energy’s new compact nuclear reactor

In the photo you can see Deployable Energy’s first reactor being trucked to Idaho National Laboratory to be tested. Their reactor first went critical on June 30, 2026.  - Andy May
The reactor was produced under President Trump’s 2025 nuclear reactor plan
It was designed by Australian Bobby Gallagher and his team in Houston. 
  • It can produce one megawatt of power, at a cost of 15 cents per kilowatt hour, for five years before refueling is required. 
  • The entire reactor can fit on the bed of a Ford F150 pickup, as shown in the photo. 
  • More importantly, it can be manufactured in a factory, fits into one 20-foot shipping container, uses the existing conventional supply chain, and requires no exotic custom-made components...
