Deep Fission Gravity Nuclear Reactor™

A Scientific Breakthrough Decades in the Making

Deep Fission’s 15MWe Gravity Nuclear Reactor technology taps into one of nature’s most reliable forces to make nuclear power inherently safer, dramatically more cost-efficient, scalable, and faster to deploy.

Integrating Three Established Technologies

An approach that enables the use of off-the-shelf components, existing supply chains, and readily available low-enriched uranium (LEU) fuel.

1 Gravity Well Drilling (Oil & Gas)

Developing advanced deep borehole drilling using standard infrastructure for containment one mile underground.

Novel deployment approach applies proven geothermal components and processes for energy transfer to the turbine generator at the surface.

Hydrostatic pressure from one-mile-deep column of water provides 160 atm of reliable pressure, safely and naturally.

Safe, proven light-water reactors already generate about 20% of our nation's electrical use.

Engineering Simplicity for an Energetic Impact

Each component that makes up our technology has been purposely engineered to build one of the most impactful solutions in nuclear power to date.

Deep Pressurized Water Reactor

Our advanced pressure water reactor (PWR) utilizes 2x2 and 3x3 standard fuel assemblies with readily available low-enriched uranium (LEU) fuel. By relying on established reactor technology, the Deep PWR design ensures efficiency, passive safety, and secure containment.

Deep Geo Vault

The Deep Geo Vault uses standard borehole drilled with existing oil and gas technology to create a secure, underground containment system. This naturally shielded underground vault enhances safety, reduces surface impact, and minimizes costly mega-structures.

Deep Geothermal

The Deep Geothermal steam generator harnesses conventional geothermal technology to change subsurface heat into clean and consistent power efficiently. This integration of geothermal principles and nuclear engineering maximizes energy transfer and creates a natural emergency core cooling system.

Underground Advantages for Above Ground Success

Scalable Power

Each reactor delivers 15 MWe of reliable power, with modular scalability that can expand beyond 1 GWe to meet growing energy demands.

Standard Fuel

The design of the reactors utilizes low-enriched uranium (LEU) technology using 2x2 and 3x3 pressurized water reactor (PWR) fuel assemblies for consistent performance.

Containment

Geological isolation at depth naturally provides operational pressures, enhances safety, and protects the public; no large, above-ground containment structures needed.

Waste Disposal

Used fuel is disposed of through conventional handling methods or securely stored in deep boreholes, providing a sustainable waste solution.
