Terrestrial Energy executes OTA agreement for Project TETRA with DOE Advanced Reactor Pilot Program
Terrestrial Energy executed an Other Transaction Authority agreement with the U.S. Department of Energy for Project TETRA under the Advanced Reactor Pilot Program. The agreement provides a streamlined collaboration to review and authorize the design and operation of the TETRA pilot reactor, enabling expedited NRC engagement.
- OTA agreement with DOE provides dedicated NRC concierge review and accelerated licensing pathway.
- Project TETRA uses molten salt fuel and graphite moderation with standard-assay low-enriched uranium (<5% U-235).
- Pilot reactor targeting initial criticality by mid-2026.
