美国SMR获批后SK Innovation与KHNP深化TerraPower合作

中文

在美国核监管委员会批准TerraPower位于怀俄明州的Natrium小型模块化反应堆（SMR）后，SK Innovation和韩国水力及核电（KHNP）正在扩展该项目合作，利用各自投资和专长构建数据中心等工业应用的SMR生态系统。

由比尔·盖茨支持的TerraPower于2026年3月4日获得美国NRC颁发的历史性建设许可，用于在怀俄明州Kemmerer建造全球首座商用SMR电厂，运营目标为2030年。这建立在包括GE Hitachi Nuclear Energy在内的合作伙伴基础上。 2022年8月，SK Inc.和SK Innovation向TerraPower投资2.5亿美元，成为其第二大股东。2023年，SK Innovation、KHNP和TerraPower签署下一代SMR开发与商业化谅解备忘录。SK Innovation计划结合其能源和材料专长与KHNP核建设知-how，在工业场地部署SMR，应对AI驱动电力需求激增，正如SK集团董事长崔泰源所言。 TerraPower首席执行官Chris Levesque称该批准为“美国核工业的历史性时刻”，建设将于月底启动。SK Innovation能源解决方案业务负责人Kim Moo-hwan确认加强了与KHNP和TerraPower的项目合作。
