Powering Humanity
from a Mile Underground
At Deep Fission, we’re pioneering a bold new approach to delivering carbon-free, reliable, and affordable electricity by placing our scalable 15 MWe small modular reactors (SMRs) one mile underground.
Reimagining Nuclear:
Cheaper. Faster. Ready for What’s Next
Traditional and next-gen reactors alike haven’t fully solved the core challenges of cost, speed, and scalability. At Deep Fission, we’re changing that.
We’ve developed a radically simple solution: take the world’s most trusted reactor design and move it one mile underground. By placing SMRs in 30-inch boreholes, we leverage the natural containment of deep geology—pressure, temperature, and shielding—to safely and affordably generate power.
This approach eliminates up to 80% of surface construction costs, slashes timelines, and allows deployment in a fraction of the footprint—almost anywhere it’s needed.
Our reactors are modular and scalable, from 15 MWe to over 1.5 GWe, enabling flexible deployment across industrial sites, data centers, remote grids, and growing commercial hubs.
Built on proven pressurized water reactor (PWR) technology, fueled with standard LEU, and supported by well-established drilling methods, we anticipate a faster, safer path to regulatory approval—without reinventing the core science or sacrificing reliability.
Each Deep Fission small modular reactor produces 15 MWe, and the fully modular design scales up to 1.5 GWe. Take a closer look at our reactor.
