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. As a leading entry in a class of small modular reactors (SMRs) our design brings nuclear power within reach for countries, utilities & communities. Our elegant and simple design maximizes the use of off-the-shelf components manufactured and shipped to site using existing road & rail.

X-energy’s reactor designs are based on HTGR technology — a Generation-IV reactor technology with a proven operational pedigree.
