NuScale Power and Ebara Collaborate on High-Temperature Steam Compressor
NuScale Power and Ebara Elliott Energy, a global producer of turbomachinery solutions, announced a collaborative research program to demonstrate and field test a commercial scale high-temperature steam compressor to integrate NuScale Power Modules with petrochemical plants needing process heat. NuScale's technology, powered by its NPM, is the first and only SMR to have received U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission design approval. Under the program, EEE and NuScale will collaborate to support the development, manufacturing, and integration of critical turbomachinery and energy-conversion systems for petrochemical plants powered by NuScale technology. The project is in progress with the compressor target completion in 2027. Currently, the partners are seeking candidates for the next phase of the project, field testing.
