Seaborg has teamed up with Samsung Heavy Industries to build a liquid nuclear power plant that also includes hydrogen and ammonia facilities.
Because Seaborg’s Compact Molten Salt Reactor CMSR is an appropriate power source for the delivery of steady, clean, and safe electricity, the agreement encompasses the construction of hydrogen production facilities and ammonia plants.
“We are thrilled and proud to cooperate with Samsung Heavy Industries, one of the largest and most experienced shipyards in the world. It’s another step forward in our goal to develop a new generation of nuclear reactors that are both clean and safe.” Seaborg’s CEO and co-founder, Troels Schönfeldt,
The company’s goal is to build and market turnkey power plants that can be moored at industrial ports and connected to the onshore electricity system.
The steady generation of energy also enables the creation of all Power-2-X fuels, with hydrogen and ammonia being particularly attractive as future energy sources to replace existing fossil fuels. SHI’s shipyards will improve the design of the hydrogen, ammonia, and power units for efficient serial construction.
The floating nuclear power station is modular and can generate up to 800 megawatts of electricity over a 24-year period.
