A significant investment is being made to develop nuclear energy. The US Army has a plan to add small nuclear reactors at multiple bases. This effort aims to create a reliable energy source that does not depend on the main power grid.

The project involves five companies that will build and operate these reactors. They will receive funding up to $2.2 billion over five years if certain goals are met.

Further information about this initiative is available, including the locations of the bases and the companies involved in the project.
