Small Modular Reactors (SMRs)
Compact nuclear fission reactors providing reliable off-grid power.
SMRs are advanced nuclear reactors with <300 MWe capacity, factory-fabricated and transportable to remote mining sites. They offer zero-carbon, 24/7 baseload power for energy-intensive operations (like smelting or hydrogen production), replacing diesel generators and overcoming renewable intermittency constraints.
