Sodium reactor and molten salt energy storage system
The Natrium reactor, a sodium-cooled fast reactor developed by TerraPower, fundamentally redefines nuclear power by integrating a gigawatt-scale molten salt energy storage system, effectively replacing both traditional large-scale nuclear plants and fossil fuel peaker plants. Built for the 21st century grid, TerraPower's Natrium technology is one of the fastest and lowest-cost paths to advanced, zero-carbon energy. Molten salt energy storage is plant design is simple and streamlined, making it easier, the quantity. .
