AI Summary

Seattle startup Emerald Nuclear received a $2.1 million award from The Research Council of Norway to validate its high-temperature gas reactor technology with marine partners under Norway's Marine Nuclear Propulsion System Pilot project. The five-person company has not yet built a reactor. It targets a first prototype and a 5 MW Gem Microreactor by 2030, with commercial deployment on a Norwegian offshore vessel in 2031. Reaching that will require additional financing, regulatory approvals and a reliable fuel supply; it has previously raised an undisclosed amount from angel investors.
