Nuclear Startup Announces Kansas Site for Mile-Deep Reactor Pilot
- •California-based Deep Fission is breaking ground on December 9 for a pilot project of its novel 'Gravity Nuclear Reactor' in Parsons, Kansas.
- •The project involves small modular reactors (SMRs) designed for mile-deep boreholes, representing a unique approach to nuclear power generation.
- •This early-stage development at the Great Plains Industrial Park signals a potential future source of compact, carbon-free baseload power for high-density loads, relevant for large power consumers and developers.
