Prodigy Clean Energy Completes R&D on Transportable Nuclear Power Plants with CAD2.75 Million Funding
Prodigy Clean Energy has successfully completed a two-year R&D project on its Transportable Nuclear Power Plant (TNPP) technology, supported by CAD2.75 million in government funding. Designed for remote deployment, the TNPP will utilize TRISO-fuelled microreactors and aims for licensing and operational readiness in Canada by 2030-2032, with plans for a pilot project in collaboration with a First Nation. The initiative involves partnerships with Kinectrics, Lloyd's Register, and Indigenous Rights Holders.

Prodigy Clean Energy has completed a two-year R&D project on its Transportable Nuclear Power Plant (TNPP) technology, receiving CAD2.75 million (USD2 million) in government funding. The TNPP aims to combine nuclear technologies with maritime practices to deliver fully-assembled nuclear plants that comply with Canadian regulations.
These transportable plants are designed for remote deployment, using a TRISO-fuelled microreactor and can operate in various environments. Prodigy is developing two facility sizes, the Microreactor Power Station TNPP and the SMR Marine Power Station TNPP, which are customizable for outputs from 1-1000 MWe.
The project aims for licensing and deployment in Canada by 2030-2032, with plans for a pilot project proposed by a First Nation. Key collaborations included Kinectrics, Lloyd's Register, and Indigenous Rights Holders.
