Oklo Inc. has selected a contractor to build its first nuclear power plant, a sign the energy startup is gaining momentum in its efforts to deliver a new type of reactor.
Kiewit Nuclear Solutions Co. agreed to be the lead constructor for a small reactor Oklo plans to install at Idaho National Laboratory. Oklo expects to submit an application for its design to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission by the end of this year, and the Idaho plant may be complete by late 2027, Chief Executive Officer Jacob DeWitte said Tuesday on Bloomberg TV.
