The NGNP Industry Alliance promotes the development of High Temperature Gas-Cooled Reactor (HTGR) technology, offering intrinsic safety without the need for active or passive systems and requiring no operator intervention. Spent fuel is air-cooled, presenting a low technical risk. This innovative technology enables the production of process heat and electricity efficiently, particularly in arid regions. HTGRs present significant economic advantages, competing competitively at $5 to $10/MMBTU against traditional gas sources, making them a near-term game changer for carbon offset and various extensive market applications.
