Quite the volatile PPS :)

I got another slice at under $19! I'll keep adding on dips. this one was a nice dip. I'm in for the medium term (2-3 years minimum). So those look good. And with SMR, the July NRC decision could push the PPS up. If the decision on the 77MWe module is positive of course.

Best of luck with your investments!

like what I see here

worked on the Riverbend Nuclear 960 MW BWR facility and am a believer in mini-reactors taking the lead in the future...

maybe a bit pricey at the moment and has definitely achieved a decent FMV during 2024 with nice SS...

Texas considering Nuclear to strengthen their power grid and prepare for future demands.

The PUCT’s Advanced Nuclear Reactor Working Group stated Texas has 61 sites where Small Modular Reactors (SMRs) could be placed to help increase power on our grid.

Not seeing a recent parade of others at SMR dumping, so perhaps she was just an outlier inside trade. I'm guessing her interim VP tag may soon be lifted and if she moves to VP; the salary bump and stock options will fill the gap created by her current depleted holdings of 3,801 shares.

Meta seeks nuclear power developers for reactors to start in early 2030s
By Timothy Gardner
December 3, 20244:20 PM MSTUpdated 14 hours

WASHINGTON, Dec 3 (Reuters) - Meta (META.O), opens new tab said on Tuesday it is seeking proposals from nuclear power developers to help meet its artificial intelligence and environment goals, becoming the latest big tech company to take interest in atomic power amid an expected boom in electricity demand.

The company wants to add 1 to 4 gigawatts of new U.S. nuclear generation capacity starting in the early 2030s, it said in a release. A typical U.S. nuclear plant has a capacity of about 1 gigawatt.



"At Meta, we believe nuclear energy will play a pivotal role in the transition to a cleaner, more reliable, and diversified electric grid," the company said in a release.
U.S. data center power use is expected to roughly triple between 2023 and 2030 and will require about 47 gigawatts of new generation capacity, according to Goldman Sachs estimates.
But it will be tough to swiftly meet soaring power demand with nuclear reactors, as companies face an overburdened U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, potential uranium fuel supply obstacles and local opposition.


Microsoft (MSFT.O), opens new tab and Constellation Energy (CEG.O), opens new tab announced a deal in September to restart a unit at the Three Mile Island plant in Pennsylvania in what would be the first-ever restart for a data center.
That announcement followed a similar agreement in March in which Amazon.com (AMZN.O), opens new tab, purchased a nuclear-powered data center from Talen Energy (TLN.O), opens new tab.
Meta said it is seeking developers with expertise in community engagement, development and permitting, and would consider either small modular reactors, an emerging part of the business that is not yet commercial, or larger nuclear reactors similar to today's fleet of U.S. nuclear plants.
Meta said it will take submissions from developers that want to take part in the request for proposals until Feb. 7, 2025.

The company said it was using the request-for-proposal process because, compared to renewable energy projects like solar and wind, nuclear is more capital-intensive, takes longer to develop, and is subject to more regulatory requirements.
"An RFP process will allow us to approach these projects thoroughly and thoughtfully with these considerations in mind," it said.

Let's see if NuScale benefits.

Best of luck with your investments.

NuScale on White House Announcement

Shares of NuScale Power (NYSE: SMR), a developmental-stage maker of small modular reactors, initially popped this morning on an announcement from the White House on expanding nuclear energy production.

While the stock jumped as much as 13% in morning trading, it gave back those gains amid a broader pullback in small-cap stocks in a sign that the boom from Trump's election was fading.

The new plan from the White House aims to triple nuclear energy production by 2050, and the plan is supportive of small modular reactors (SMRs), which it said have "strong potential for both grid-based and behind-the-meter resilient electricity."

It also name-checked NuScale's VOYGR power modules, and the plan aims to deploy $900 million for new SMR deployments, some of which could go directly to NuScale

.

The Trump administration is expected to be favorable to nuclear power, including SMRs like the kind NuScale is focused on building.

Fluor stock has recently taken a big hit. It might be a wise move to buy some far-in-the-future out-of-the-money Call Options on FLR.

Aside from being the largest single investor in NuScale Power, Fluor is going to be heavily involved in building SMRs no matter what happens.

[H2R]

Two main takeaways from yesterday's CC

* Proceeding with Fluor’s Phase 2 Front-End Engineering and Design (FEED Phase 2) study for the RoPower Doice?ti small modular reactor (SMR) power plant

* Supply chain partner Doosan Enerbility making progress producing the first NuScale Power Modules™

And still on track for the 77 MWe module approval mid-year. The cash position looks steady.

The start around AI, energy independence, etc., sounded like a sales pitch as opposed to real info, surfing on recent announcements and the election results.

The two slides with some actual substance:
*Slide 6:

RoPower Project Progressing
▪ In 3Q’24, RoPower authorized the Front-End Engineering and Design Phase 2 (“FEED Phase 2”) project for its
Doice?ti small modular reactor power plant to proceed under contract with Fluor Corporation

▪ NuScale executed revenue-generating agreements with RoPower and Fluor in relation to the advancement of Doice?ti
project FEED Phase 2

▪ FEED Phase 2 work began on September 30th and the expected duration is 12-14 months

▪ RoPower targets 462 MW installed capacity, using six NuScale Power Modules at the former Doice?ti coal plant site

and slide 10 (production here means being produced, not being operated):

The Only U.S. NRC-Approved Small Modular Reactor in Production

Today's market reaction seems to indicate I'm not the only one to be optimistic about NuScale after the CC.

Best of luck with your investments!

Hi uksausage,

Good point, it could be. I did not think so because it sounded like what J. Hokpins was saying is that NuScale would be making an announcement. The Amazon announcement does not say NuScale (even if it does say 'small modular reactors' )

* https://www.aboutamazon.com/news/sustainability/amazon-nuclear-small-modular-reactor-net-carbon-zero

It could well be for Amazon; I am waiting for a NuScale PR.

Thanks uksausage,

why don’t you think the Amazon announcement was the "We are very close, we believe, in hopefully announcing something that will accelerate this market"?

NuScale @ TD Securities Round Table

https://wsw.com/webcast/tds3/smr/1497692

Minute 15: Still on track for July 2025 ( 'a little ahead' as of now) NRC decision on the 77 MWe power module. Good to hear.
Minute 19: RoPower July 2025 for the full project signature

I'm really curious about this comment
Minute 8'50'' "We are very close, we believe, in hopefully announcing something that will accelerate this market"
That comment followed the discussion on the two main commercial models just before. A bit cryptic, but can't wait to hear that announcement.

Yep I know about Kairos. I posted it to show possible industry trending towards these reactors. A good sign all around

[Going_4_It]

Kairos Power, mentioned in the article, is a competitor of NuScale Power.

Kairos is a private company so no shares are available to buy in the market. If it weren't so I would certainly be a shareholder already.

But I do own shares in NuScale Power. IMO, the only other SMR stock play that might be a good investment play longer term is OKLO, Inc. Sam Altman of OpenAI and ChatGPT is heavily involved.

In terms of actually installing a workable SMR, NuScale appear to be at least two years ahead of OKLO. However, I will probably buy some OKLO at some point.

NuScale Power (SMR) shares are just a couple of bucks more expensive than OKLO. So I own NuScale and no OKLO.

All just my opinion...
