Abundant energy is within reach
Our technology can fundamentally improve the lives of people all over the world, making fossil fuels history. Our arguments:
Simple and patented technology
The simple design is a breakthrough, harnessing for the first time in the nuclear sector the emergence of a new class of materials and recent advancements in process engineering. Designed to exploit the full potential of nuclear fuels, a Dual Fluid power plant delivers many times more energy than other technologies.

The next energetic era
Designed to exploit the full potential of nuclear fuels, a Dual Fluid Reactor could prove to be the most efficient energy source ever developed. Its mass-producible, compact reactor core will make up to a hundred times better use of nuclear fuel than today’s light-water reactors. This, together with massive design simplifications, has the potential to halve today’s electricity costs.
Levelized cost of energy (LCOE), US¢/kWh
Holistic waste-burning concept
Nuclear waste is recyclable material
Dual Fluid offers the only nuclear design that is capable of using nuclear fuel in a way that leaves no significant amount of long-lived fission products, made possible by a novel pyrochemical recycling process combined with the reactor. Existing nuclear waste can be used as fuel. The residual materials will only need to be stored for about 300 years, compared with several 100,000 years today.
“Dual Fluid will provide low-emission energy in abundance. This can help create more humane, modern and prosperous societies".

Serving heat markets
Complete decarbonization is possible
Operating at exceptionally high temperatures of 1000°C at low cost, a Dual Fluid Reactor can provide clean and stable heat for industrial processes such as steel or ammonia production. Clean hydrogen and synthetic fuels can be produced at a price significantly lower than today´s fossil-based alternatives. This frees not only the electricity sector, but all areas of life from emissions.
Well researched
Approved by leading institutions worldwide
A preliminary safety analysis from Technical Universities of Munich and Dresden (Germany) has confirmed the favorable safety properties of Dual Fluid technology. Our partners at the National Nuclear Research Centre, Poland, have studied the reactor physics and thermal hydraulics. Together with our Canadian partner TRIUMF, the national particle accelerator centre, we are carrying out irradiation tests. According to our partners’ calculations to date, our technology will work exactly as we intend.
