MHI multi-purpose microreactor

MHI modular microreactor concept for terrestrial remote communities and other applications. Its January 2025 paper describes a typical 1 MWth / approximately 300 kWe configuration, while Table 1 states lower bounds of at least 1 MWth and at least 300 kWe. Numeric rating fields remain unknown to preserve that distinction. The core conducts heat through solid graphite; CO₂ in the power system is not a gas-cooled core classification. No deployment is established.
