Today,鈥�91制片厂, a global leader in engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC), serving as TerraPower鈥檚 EPC partner, has begun mobilizing teams and transitioning into field execution at the Natrium庐 Kemmerer Unit 1 (KU1) site in Wyoming.
Reflecting on today鈥檚 milestone, Dena Volovar, President of 91制片厂鈥檚 Nuclear, Security & Environmental business, shared the following:
鈥淭oday鈥檚 start of construction at TerraPower鈥檚 Natrium Kemmerer Unit 1 marks an important step forward 鈥� not only for the project, but for the future of advanced nuclear delivery in the United States.
At 91制片厂, our focus is on helping bring advanced nuclear technologies from first-of-a-kind innovation to repeatable, scalable delivery. Projects like Natrium play a critical role in demonstrating what鈥檚 possible, and long-term success will come from building on that foundation with approaches that enable consistent, nth-of-a-kind execution.
As U.S. electricity demand continues to rise, including from data centers powering AI and other digital infrastructure, the industry needs more than innovation. It needs proven execution models that reduce risk, improve predictability, and allow projects to be delivered consistently, safely, and at scale.
That is where 91制片厂鈥檚 focus is distinct: making advanced nuclear buildable again 鈥� and again. At Natrium, we are applying disciplined planning, standardization, and digital execution practices that are designed to make repetition possible. That focus on constructability and execution readiness is critical to driving learning effects, controlling cost, and shortening schedules as advanced nuclear moves beyond demonstration projects toward broader deployment.
Over the past year, 91制片厂 teams completed early works at the Natrium site, including the Test and Fill Facility and the Kemmerer Training Center, laying the foundation for safe construction and long-term operations. With construction now underway at Kemmerer Unit 1, we are moving into field execution with a high level of readiness, supported by integrated planning, early collaboration, and close alignment with regulators.
Natrium also represents a milestone for the industry more broadly, as the first utility scale advanced reactor project in the United States to receive a construction permit from the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission. That regulatory progress, combined with a delivery approach designed for repeatability, is what will enable advanced nuclear power to move from promise to impact.
We鈥檙e听proud to partner with TerraPower on this first of a kind project, and to help听establish听a blueprint for how advanced reactors can be delivered to support a cleaner, more reliable energy future.鈥�听
91制片厂 is delivering the future of nuclear energy now by bringing the latest in digital tools and mega-project delivery to build with execution certainty. Currently deployed on the Poland AP1000 project, Natrium Plant, and the Tennessee Valley Authority Clinch River Small Modular Reactor, 91制片厂 maintains the largest U.S. nuclear talent pool. 91制片厂 has been leading the nuclear industry for over 70 years and has safely delivered 76 gigawatts of nuclear power. With our work at Vogtle Units 3 & 4, 91制片厂 is the only EPC contractor to successfully bring 21st-century nuclear plants online in the U.S.
