Halo reactor: US firm unveils commercial plan for 10MWe nuclear reactor based on light-water tech

A California-based firm has introduced a commercial plan for a 10-megawatt electric (MWe) nuclear reactor called Halo, which uses light-water technology. This micro-modular reactor aims to offer a scalable and safer alternative to traditional nuclear plants. With a focus on safety and efficiency, this development could significantly impact the push for clean energy solutions, especially as the world seeks to reduce reliance on fossil fuels and mitigate climate change. The unveiling of this plan highlights a step forward in the commercialization of advanced nuclear technology.
