X-energy is a developer of advanced modular nuclear reactors and fuel technology for clean energy generation. The company manufactures fuel that seals uranium particles in a protective coating, making meltdown impossible. It develops safe and efficient reactors and proprietary fuel to deliver reliable, zero-carbon, affordable energy to people worldwide. The simplified, modular, and high-temperature gas reactor design expands applications and markets for the deployment of nuclear technology.

Zap Energy, Inc., founded in 2017 and headquartered in Seattle, Washington, specializes in the design and manufacture of sheared-flow stabilized Z-Pinch fusion reactors for power generation. The company’s innovative technology utilizes electric currents to create magnetic fields that confine and compress plasma, enabling efficient energy production through nuclear fusion. This approach offers a low-carbon, cost-effective, and flexible power source while requiring less capital investment compared to traditional fusion methods. By focusing on compact and scalable fusion technology, Zap Energy aims to advance sustainable energy solutions and improve the economics of fusion energy.
