Westinghouse is Defining What's Next for Nuclear

From pioneering commercial nuclear power to developing the industry's first nuclear-specific AI system, every Westinghouse breakthrough has been built on the last. More than 90 years of proprietary nuclear expertise underpins Westinghouse AI technologies that can help customers design, license, build and operate nuclear plants with greater efficiency, speed and confidence. Our AP300™ Small Modular Reactor, eVinci™ Microreactor and thousands of approved and pending patents are just part of our growing innovation pipeline.

AI Built for Nuclear

Westinghouse’s HiVE™ AI system and bertha™ generative AI assistant put our 90 years of proprietary nuclear knowledge to work across the plant lifecycle. The bertha™ assistant can produce the outline and initial content for a new licensing document in under 10 seconds, a task that traditionally takes an hour or more, while Westinghouse’s OptiLife™ Service Center brings together operating data from nearly 200 nuclear plants worldwide.

Making Nuclear Construction Faster, More Repeatable and More Efficient

Westinghouse’s AP1000® reactor is designed to get more efficient with each deployment. Since the first AP1000 plant began commercial operation in 2018, construction efficiency has improved 30%, costs have declined 20%, and a new Google Cloud partnership is applying AI to drive even greater efficiency and repeatability in future deployments.

Building a New Kind of Nuclear Reactor

At roughly 15 MWt, the eVinci™ microreactor is designed to bring reliable nuclear energy to locations where a traditional power plant may not make sense. Westinghouse is also developing a full digital replica of the reactor that could cut future digital twin development costs by at least 50% and eventually allow a single operator to monitor an entire fleet.

Bringing Proven Technology to a Smaller Scale

The AP300™ SMR takes the industry-leading passive safety technology at the heart of the proven AP1000® reactor and applies it at a smaller scale, extending an established Westinghouse technology platform into the growing market for small modular nuclear power.

Advancing the Fuel of the Future

Westinghouse is developing nuclear fuels designed to deliver greater safety, performance and efficiency. Its $93.6 million U.S. Department of Energy-backed EnCore® fuel program reached several milestones in 2025, while a separate machine-learning application could become the industry’s first licensed use of AI/machine learning for nuclear safety and reduce a key fuel-development process by up to a year.

Taking Nuclear to Space

Westinghouse is adapting its eVinci™ microreactor technology to provide reliable power beyond Earth. Designed for satellite and lunar surface applications, the system can deliver 10 – 100 kWe of power and operate for up to 10 years – supporting missions ranging from lunar bases and surface operations to spacecraft propulsion and, eventually, Mars exploration.
