## Resource

NuScale Power is racing to revolutionize nuclear energy with its small, factory-built, transportable reactors—designed for safety and flexibility, perfect for powering AI hubs and scalable grids. Though they’ve snagged key regulatory nods and are in talks with big players like ENTRA1 and TVA, no major sale yet means their tech remains unproven—and their stock has swung wildly. Still burning cash like a startup, they’re eyeing a potential Romanian project with six SMRs and U.S. partnerships, but financing and deals are still in flux. Landing that first sale won’t mean instant profits—just the start of a long, risky climb. If you believe in SMRs, the current dip might be a smart long-term bet… but only if you’re ready for the rollercoaster.
