RELLIS Nuclear Reactor Project

The Texas A&M University System is soliciting proposals for the demonstration of advanced nuclear reactors on the RELLIS campus. The project involves the design, construction, operation, and potential decommissioning of nuclear reactors, with a focus on Generation III+ and Generation IV reactors, as well as other advanced nuclear technologies. The reactors should be capable of generating up to 1 gigawatt (GW) of total capacity, with individual reactor options starting around 10 megawatts (MW). The selected proposer must handle all aspects of the project, including site feasibility, licensing, integration with the ERCOT grid, and ongoing maintenance. Proposals are due by September 26, 2024.
