TerraPower, Evergy and Kansas Department of Commerce memorandum to explore siting a Natrium plant in Kansas

TerraPower, Evergy and the Kansas Department of Commerce signed a memorandum of understanding in September 2025 to explore siting a Natrium reactor and energy storage system in Evergy's Kansas service territory. Greenwood County invited community support for a bid and said TerraPower was expected to narrow the field to two or three communities, no site has been selected and no licence application filed.
