Aalo Atomics raises $100M to build a microreactor and data center together

Nuclear startups have soaked attention from hypersscalers and soaked in investors’ cash. The ALO Atomos is the latest beneficiary of the Big Tech-Short-Short-Short Nuclear Love Employment, a series has collected $ 100 million in a series B, the company has announced today.

Startup is planned to flip the switch in the first reactor of CEO Matt Lossak in the summer of 2026 D To a LinkedIn post. The facility is located on the campus of the Idaho National Labo.

ALO – No need to be confused with Unnecessary -The Energy Lab section may be considered as a pseudo-spinout, which created and opened a small modular reactor called Marvel. The company’s CTO, Yasir Arafat, had earlier led Marvel’s design, which lights “inspired” its prototype. ALO had received Development support From the Idaho National Lab as part of the Obama administration program to accelerate the development of nuclear reactor.

Valore Equity Partners led by Series B Round 50Y, former Ventures, Crescent Initiatives, Crosscuts, Fine Structures Ventures, Gaizels, Hitchun Ventures, Hitachi Ventures, Kindred Venus, MCJE, NRG, NRG, NRG Ergie, NRG. Was led by Vamsnt’s participation.

If the ALO can meet its aggressive deadline, it will increase a trend in the nuclear industry, which has a long -term history that is more complex by delay.

Like many advanced nuclear startings, the scale is calculating the economy of the scale to help both expenditure and time extended. If the company can prove its approach, it has said that it will build pod power plants, which will have five Ala -1 furnaces, which provides heat to a single turbine to produce 50 megawatts of electricity.

The startup says that the ALO-X prototype will also have a “experimental” data center next to it, a detail that sounds like marketing rather than technical innovation.

In the end, Alo says that it is a price that would be a price of electricity per kilowatt-hour to 3 cents Make it competitive New natural gas power plants and solar farms are built today. Startup is not a timeline on that price, though an intelligent step given to the nuclear industry Pre -promiseThe

ALO is not the only nuclear startup news this week. Yesterday, Cairos said that the Tennessee Valley Authority agreed to buy 50 MW from its Hermes 2 power plant, which is planning to build a startup oak resume of the startup. Google, instead, will use that energy to run its data centers.
