America Is Betting Big on a New Generation of Small Nuclear Reactors

The U.S. Army is committing up to $2.2 billion to accelerate microreactor development as the United States pushes advanced nuclear technology toward commercial deployment. The U.S. Army has selected five companies and five military installations for its Janus microreactor program, backed by up to $2.2 billion in federal funding. The Army aims to have at least one microreactor producing usable electricity at a military installation by September 30, 2028. Private developers, including Aalo, are also advancing reactor technology, supported by federal programs and efforts to streamline nuclear regulation.
