Last Energy and the Texas A&M University System today announced plans for a microreactor pilot project at Texas A&M-RELLIS, an applied research and advanced technology campus. The project will feature Last Energy’s PWR-5, a microreactor design physically identical to the company’s commercial product, the PWR-20, scaled to 5 MW of electrical output. The PWR-5 will demonstrate safe, low-power criticality and the ability to generate electricity for commercial output.

Last Energy's power plant design, the PWR-20, has successfully completed a Preliminary Design Review (PDR), becoming the first nuclear developer to do so in the United Kingdom. The review was conducted by the UK’s nuclear regulators: the Office for Nuclear Regulation (ONR), the Environment Agency, and Natural Resources Wales (NRW).
