The $3.5 million investment program chose four companies for the project including General Atomics, GE Hitachi, Gen4 Energy and Westinghouse Electric Co.

“Public-private research in advanced nuclear reactors will help accelerate American leadership in the next generation of nuclear energy technologies and enable low-carbon nuclear power to be a significant contributor to the U.S. energy economy,” said Energy Secretary Ernest Moniz.

The contract is meant to support a presidential effort to reduce carbon emissions and drive innovation for clean technologies.
