Core Power’s earlier strides toward FNPP
Earlier in November 2024, Core Power had entered into an agreement with Westinghouse Electric Company for the design and development of a floating nuclear power plant using the eVinci microreactor.
Under the agreement, Westinghouse and Core Power would advance the design of an FNPP using the eVinci microreactor and its heat pipe technology. The eVinci microreactor is fully assembled in the factory and can be easily shipped in a container. The machine has very few moving parts and can be used for power systems ranging from just a few kilowatts to five megawatts.
The microreactor is also capable of producing high-temperature heat for industrial applications.
