NuScale plant proposal at Savannah River Site (2012)
Historical proposal. In March 2012 NuScale signed a memorandum of agreement with DOE-Savannah River that it called the first step in the potential deployment of a NuScale plant at the site, where several locations were identified. The 2012 design used 45 MWe modules, an earlier version than VOYGR. No licence application or construction is documented.
