NANO Nuclear Energy and the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign are progressing through the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission's detailed audit and technical review of the KRONOS MMR™ microreactor Construction Permit Application, aiming to begin initial construction in late 2027.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Energy Storage.

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway

You can target advanced nuclear developers as the US regulatory path for microreactors is moving into its most detailed review stage, opening opportunities to support the transition from design to construction in 2027. Delays or technical requests from the NRC remain a risk to the earliest project start dates.
