About

Holtec International is a nuclear-energy technology company specializing in spent-fuel storage, small modular reactors and nuclear-plant decommissioning. Its principal advanced-reactor design is the SMR-300, a pressurized-water SMR rated at approximately 1,000 MWth and more than 320 MWe net per unit, with passive-safety features and an 80-year design life. On 17 February 2026, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission accepted Holtec SMR, LLC's Limited Work Authorization application for two SMR-300 Pioneer units at the Palisades Energy Center, initiating formal review. In September 2026, Holtec's IPO entity, Holtec Nuclear Corp, filed to raise up to $900 million on Nasdaq (50 million shares at $15-18 each) but suspended the offering on September 16, citing market conditions shortly before its expected pricing date.
