Oklo announced today that the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) Idaho Operations Office has approved the company's Preliminary Documented Safety Analysis (PDSA) for its Aurora powerhouse at Idaho National Laboratory (INL) under DOE's Reactor Pilot Program.
According to Jacob DeWitte, co-founder and CEO of Oklo, "This approval represents an important milestone for Aurora-INL and helps establish a foundation for future Aurora deployments."
The Aurora-INL is the first of the company's planned advanced nuclear reactor facilities. With the DOE approval of the PDSA, Oklo is one step closer to securing the Documented Safety Analysis, the final safety document that the DOE requires.
