Radiant has received approval from the Department of Energy (DOE) for its Preliminary Documented Safety Analysis. This approval marks a significant step forward in the development of the company’s first reactor, allowing progress toward its planned full-power test.
With this milestone achieved, Radiant is on track to begin reactor start-up in the summer of 2026. The approval is the first of its kind for a full-power test, highlighting the project’s advancement in meeting regulatory and safety requirements.
**Why this matters**
The DOE’s approval of the safety analysis is a critical regulatory hurdle that ensures the reactor design meets necessary safety standards. This progress supports the timely deployment of advanced nuclear technology, which could contribute to future clean energy production.
