At Deep Fission, we’re taking a radically different approach to nuclear energy: smaller, safer, faster to deploy—and located a mile underground. By placing reactors deep beneath the Earth’s surface, we use the natural containment of billions of tons of bedrock to dramatically improve safety and cut costs.

In this episode of Rullion Reflections, we sit down with Liz Muller, CEO and co-founder of Deep Fission, to explore how bold thinking and new technology are transforming one of nuclear energy’s biggest challenges: waste disposal.

Korea Institute of Energy Technology (KENTECH) is the nation's first university to collaborate with a U.S. nuclear power company in technological development. The school on Jan. 13 announced that it signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) on Jan. 7 on an energy project with Deep Fission, an American startup in nuclear energy.

California-based nuclear startup company Deep Fission, which is proposing to place microreactors deep underground, and Endeavour Energy LLC have committed to co-develop 2 GW of nuclear energy to power Endeavour's expanding portfolio of data centres. The first reactors are expected to be operational in 2029.

Deep Fission, a nuclear startup, signed a deal on Tuesday with data center developer Endeavour to build 2 gigawatts’ worth of subterranean nuclear power.

Deep Fission, a small modular nuclear reactor (SMR) developer, has partnered with Endeavour Energy, a US sustainable infrastructure developer, to develop and deploy its technology at scale.

Deep Fission aims to eliminate the need for costly concrete and steel surface containment buildings by placing its reactor a mile underground.

Deep Fission co-founder and CEO Elizabeth Muller discusses placing nuclear reactors a mile underground on 'The Claman Countdown.'

A new startup thinks an underground reactor could solve nuclear power’s biggest problems.

An American company is proposing an innovative solution: a nuclear reactor buried 1 mile (1.6 kilometer) beneath the earth's surface.
