Here are ten examples of small modular reactor (SMR) designs: NuScale Power Module: This pressurized water reactor (PWR) design from NuScale Power in the United States is a scalable system that can be deployed in units of up to 12 modules. Each module has a capacity of 60 MW, and the entire system can produce up to 720 MW.
The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) issued its final rule in the Federal Register to certify NuScale Power’s small modular reactor. The company’s power module becomes the first SMR design certified by the NRC and just the seventh reactor design cleared for use in the United States.
Reyes and NuScale's 350 employees have designed a small modular reactor (SMR) that would take up 1% of the space of a conventional reactor. Whereas a typical commercial reactor cranks out a gigawatt of power, each NuScale SMR would generate just 60 megawatts.

Jose Reyes, a nuclear engineer and cofounder of NuScale Power, headquartered in Portland, Oregon, says he and his colleagues can revive nuclear by thinking small. Reyes and NuScale's 350 employees have designed a small modular reactor (SMR) that would take up 1% of the space of a conventional reactor.
Each module has a capacity of 60 MW, and the entire system can produce up to 720 MW. SMR-160: This PWR design from Holtec International in the United States has a capacity of 160 MW and can be deployed in units of up to six modules. The reactor vessel is submerged in water, which provides an additional safety feature in case of an accident.
