AMPERA nuclear module, power conversion end

Products

Three systems. One platform.

Deploy now on waste heat or conventional fuel. Convert to nuclear later on the same power block.

AMP-G7.5: burner thermal module, power module and heat rejection module
Commercially available Q1 2028

AMP-G7.5

Conventional, modular gas-fired burner

A modular gas-fired thermal block feeds the sCO2 power module. Recuperator, heat exchanger, turbopump and generator convert it to about 7.5 MWe in a transportable footprint.

Output
~7.5 MWe
Fuel
Natural gas, LNG, CNG, diesel, hydrogen
Generator
13.8 kV AC, 50/60 Hz
Cooling
Air or liquid
Footprint
800 ft²
Modules
30 ft thermal, 30 ft power, 10 ft cooling

AMP-G45

Aero-derived gas-turbine combined cycle

A converted gas turbine drives a ~30 MWe generator. Its hot exhaust feeds the sCO2 power block, which adds ~15 MWe with no additional fuel, toward a >50% efficiency target.

Output
~45 MWe (30 + 15)
Fuel
Pipeline natural gas
Generator
13.8 / 34.5 kV AC, 50/60 Hz
Cooling
Air or liquid
Footprint
850 ft²
Modules
40 ft thermal, 30 ft power, 10 ft cooling

Factory production

The PowerNOW line.

From freight in to crane lift: modules are fabricated, integrated, inspected and tested as connected systems before they ship.
