Oklo will deploy its first commercial advanced reactor in the United States before the end of the decade. Oklo has a site use permit from the U.S. Department of Energy to build its first plant in Idaho, has fuel for its first reactor, and has been engaged with the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission since 2016, preparing to license its first plant. Oklo is a leading advanced reactor company with a site, fuel, and major regulatory progress to date.

  • Economic: The energy density of fission affords Oklo sizeable economic advantages over alternatives.

  • Reliable: Oklo’s reactors are simple systems with long fuel lifetimes, enabling the reliable production of clean heat and electricity consistently throughout that time.
