Kadmos Energy Proposes PWR SMR Rollout and Fuel-Cycle Plan to Texas Regulators
Kadmos Energy, backed by Snow Lake Resources, submitted responses to the Texas Advanced Nuclear Energy Office RFI, outlining pressurized water reactor small modular reactor deployment strategies and workforce development plans. It highlighted integration of Snow Lake’s uranium mining, enrichment and Exodys Energy’s recycling to secure fuel supply and waste management.
1. RFI Response Overview
Kadmos Energy has formally submitted its response to the Texas Advanced Nuclear Energy Office RFI, detailing requirements for permitting, grid integration and workforce development to enable new SMR deployments in Texas. The company aims to shape regulatory and operational frameworks that streamline pressurized water reactor small modular reactor projects at Texas nuclear sites.
2. PWR SMR Deployment Strategy
The RFI response emphasizes use of proven PWR small modular reactor designs mirroring existing Comanche Peak and South Texas Project units, promoting accelerated deployment through reduced regulatory and supply-chain risks. Kadmos’ turnkey delivery model addresses parts availability and workforce training to support sustained operations.
3. Fuel Cycle Integration and Supply
Kadmos’ proposal leverages Snow Lake Resources’ front-end fuel cycle assets, including uranium mining projects in Wyoming, Colorado and Utah and a stake in Australian enrichment firm Ubaryon. Integration with Exodys Energy’s uranium recycling technology is positioned to secure long-term fuel supply and manage spent fuel liabilities.
