Bechtel Corporation
Bechtel is a global leader building infrastructure that creates jobs, grows economies, and improves resilience worldwide.
Project Overview Bechtel is the licensing, engineering, procurement, and construction partner on TerraPower’s Natrium team. TerraPower, founded by former Microsoft CEO Bill Gates, will deploy its 345 MWe sodium fast reactor (SFR) called Natrium, a highly advanced, cost‑competitive reactor design that is safer, simpler, easier, and less costly to construct and operate. The Natrium plant features an innovative molten salt energy storage system that complements solar and wind power to smooth peaks and valleys in production when the sun is not shining or the wind is not blowing. With the reactor and energy storage output combined, the plant can produce more than 500 MWe of power. Other Natrium partners include GE Hitachi Nuclear Energy, Energy Northwest, PacifiCorp, and Duke Energy, along with support from national laboratories and universities. This DOE Program has the potential to be the largest funding program for advanced nuclear power in U.S. history and will shape the future of nuclear energy for decades.
