US regulators set the stage for small, local nuclear power stations

[PDF]. In the 2020 notice, the NRC mentioned NuScale was working on a 60 MW version of its SMR, but that isn't mentioned in the final approval notice posted last week.

The NRC's final approval notice also doesn't make any mention of NuScale's 4- or 6-reactor setups, though thedoes mention it green lighted"NuScale plant[s] consisting of up to 12 nuclear power modules, with each module having an output of 50 MWe." NuScale's SMR commercialization thumbs-up will be active 30 days after the NRC publishes it in the Federal Register. There's not a formal date for that yet, as the commission's notice only said it has"directed staff to issue a final rule," not that the decision has been written yet.
