We Don’t Have a Power Problem.
We Have a Deployment Problem.
Applied Atomics is building a repeatable way to deploy nuclear power plants — closing the gap between proven technology and operational infrastructure.
3X Demand Surge
Data center and AI power demand is projected to triple by 2030
12+ Years to Build
Average time from approval to first power for a new U.S. nuclear plant
$0 Margin for Delay
Grid reliability depends on supply keeping pace with demand — and today, it doesn’t
The Industry Failure
The nuclear industry has spent billions developing next-generation reactor designs. Yet projects continue to fail — not because of the technology, but because of how they are built.
Better technology ≠ better delivery. The system to build plants is broken.
Over Budget
Cost overruns routinely exceed 2–3x original projections
Behind Schedule
Delays measured in years, not months, across virtually every recent project
Fragmented Execution
Disconnected vendors with no single point of accountability
The Applied Atomics Model
-
Disconnected Vendors
No unified command, dozens of contractors with competing priorities
-
No Single Accountability
When things go wrong, responsibility is diffused, disputes are costly
-
High Coordination Failure
Schedule slippage compounds across every interface between parties
-
Integrated Supply Chain
Strategic partners locked in early, reducing procurement risk at every stage
-
System-Level Ownership
One team accountable from site selection through commercial operation
-
Repeatable Deployment
Standardized playbook that gets faster, cheaper, and lower-risk at scale
The Conditions Already Exist
-
Demand Is Real
Utilities, data centers, and industrial operators need firm, baseload power — and they need it now
-
Supply Chain Exists
Nuclear-grade component manufacturers are active. Long-lead items can be ordered today with the right partner
-
Coordination Is Missing
No one has built the integrating layer — the system that turns components into operating plants at scale
01
Proof of Execution
Every milestone below represents real risk retired — not a roadmap, but a track record in progress.
Integration Testing
First integration test stand currently under construction
Supply Chain Engaged
Strategic manufacturing partner secured for long-lead nuclear components
Active Site Testing
3 prospective sites under evaluation in TX and WY with siting path underway
Real Demand Signal
Early engagement with data center operators representing >100MW of demand
02
Business Model
Applied Atomics is not a reactor vendor or a construction contractor. We develop, build, and operate — capturing value across the full lifecycle of each asset.
Develop
Site selection, permitting, financing structure, and offtake agreements secured before shovels move
Build
Integrated execution model with system-level accountability from component to commissioning
Operate
Long-term power agreements and infrastructure revenue - durable, contracted cash flows
03
Go-To-Market
The first project is the proof of concept. Every subsequent deployment benefits from the same standardized playbook — compressing timelines and de-risking execution with each iteration.

Why We Win
Proven Designs | No technology risk — licensed, battle-tested reactor designs
Anchored Supply Chain | Long-lead components secured before competitors start permitting
Integrated Execution | Single point of accountability — no coordination gaps
Faster Deployment | Standardized model compresses schedules with every build
Repeatability at Scale | A platform, not a project. Built to replicate across dozens of sites
