The Power Platform
Turnkey floating nuclear power plants. Built at scale, easy to deploy
Saltfoss's floating nuclear power plants combine multiple seaMSR-100 reactors on a single platform, delivering 100–600 MWe of clean, reliable baseload power or 250–1,500 MWt of high-temperature heat. Each platform is manufactured efficiently in a centralized shipyard, then deployed to a coastal site, where it delivers power and heat to its customer for 24 years of continuous operation.
Why a Floating Platform?
Scalability
The Power Platform solves one of nuclear energy's biggest problems: scalability.
Traditional nuclear power plants are mega-projects that can take a decade to build, requiring thousands of professionals to relocate to the construction site. And because each conventional plant adds gigawatt-scale capacity to the grid, new builds happen infrequently, leaving both workforce and supply chain at risk of significant erosion between projects.
The result
- Faster construction through standardized, repeatable manufacturing. Three years from order to delivery
- A tightly quality-controlled construction environment, consistent with demanding nuclear standards
- Lower costs through economies of scale, reduced financing costs, and supply chain optimization
- Continuous learning and preserved competence, thanks to a permanent manufacturing location
- Flexible deployment to any coastal site, without massive on-site construction
Once deployed, a Power Platform connects to the local grid and stays put for 24 years, delivering clean, reliable baseload power just like a land-based plant, but with the economic advantages of shipyard manufacturing.
How Power Platforms Work
01.Manufacturing
Power Platforms are constructed at Samsung Heavy Industries' world-class shipyard. Each platform can be configured with multiple reactor units, delivering between 100 and 600 MWe depending on offtake requirements.
Shipyard manufacturing enables:
- Parallel construction: multiple platforms built simultaneously
- Supply chain optimization: centralized procurement and logistics
- Quality assurance: a controlled environment with consistent oversight
- Faster timelines: proven shipyard manufacturing processes
02.Deployment
Once manufacturing is complete, the Power Platform is towed to its designated coastal site.
At the site the platform:
- Connects to the local grid via its standard high-voltage transmission system
- Provides continuous baseload power for 24 years without refueling
- Operates to the same safety and reliability standards as land-based plants
- Requires minimal on-site infrastructure compared to traditional nuclear plants
03.Decommissioning
After 24 years of operation, the Power Platform is disconnected and towed to a centralized facility for decommissioning and potential fuel recycling.
The maritime deployment model enables:
- Centralized decommissioning: all work is managed in a controlled facility by specialized personnel
- Efficient site recovery: the operational site is cleared far faster than a traditional land-based nuclear site
- Fuel recycling potential: used molten salt fuel is suited for future fuel recycling
- Flexible reuse: the site can host a new Power Platform or be repurposed as local needs change
- Reduced long-term site burden: decommissioning happens away from the deployment site, in dedicated infrastructure
