Bechtel has EPC contract to build TerraPower's estimated $4B sodium-cooled reactor at commercial scale at former coal power plant site in Wyoming. 

DOE's push to attract private investors is seen to fast-track commercialization of clean hydrogen, long duration energy storage and advanced nuclear power.

Bechtel will lead EPC work on a 345-MW reactor at Kemmerer site for Bill Gates-founded firm TerraPower; Southern Co. also announces demonstration project with the developer in Idaho.
