Company's story
Our Specialty
We are a nuclear reactor & fuel design engineering company
We develop Generation IV high-temp gas cooled nuclear reactors & the TRISO-X fuel to power them.
Our Reactors
We are designing the safest, most efficient and most advanced small modular reactors for a wide range of global markets & applications.
Our Fuel
We use TRISO particle fuel. We manufacture our own proprietary version (TRISO-X) to ensure supply & quality control.
Sized for the Future
Xe-100 is a 80 MWe reactor that can be scaled into a ‘four-pack’ 320 MWe power plant—with our modular design, the scale can grow even larger as needed.
Geographic Flexibility
As a leading entry in a class of small modular reactors (SMRs) our design brings nuclear power within reach for countries, utilities & communities.
Affordability
Our elegant and simple design maximizes the use of off-the-shelf components manufactured and shipped to site using existing road & rail.
Safety First
With a simple design, meltdown-proof ‘walk-away’ safety, and the most robust encapsulated fuel, our approach is the safest and most secure of the Gen-IV approaches.

Our story
X-energy is delivering the next generation of carbon-free energy by reinventing nuclear power.
We believe in leaving a cleaner planet for our children and grandchildren, while continuing to provide sufficient and affordable power to sustain growing populations around the world. That is why we have reinvented nuclear power, with a unique combination of proven technologies and new innovations, to meet our current and future needs.
X-energy manufactures fuel that seals uranium particles in a protective coating, which makes meltdown impossible and retains the waste inside forever. We also design plants that unlock the fuel’s potential in a process that’s as clean as wind or solar. When combined, the result is reliable carbon-free baseload power, produced more safely and affordable than ever before and available anywhere, at any time.
