PORTLAND, Ore. / Aug 08, 2024 / Business Wire / NuScale Power Corporation (NYSE: SMR), the industry-leading provider of proprietary and innovative advanced small modular reactor nuclear technology, today announced results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2024.

“As the only SMR certified by the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, NuScale is uniquely prepared to deliver in a customer environment intensely focused on near-term deployment of carbon free power,” said John Hopkins, President and Chief Executive Officer of NuScale Power. “New data centers are opening almost daily – and each of them needs consistent, uninterrupted power. With the ability to locate our power modules onsite, NuScale can provide data centers and other industries the baseload decarbonized electricity they need without relying on external connections. We continue to advance conversations with potential customers around the world as we progress the manufacturing of our advanced SMR technology.”
