Valar Atomics has raised $19 million in a seed funding round to develop its first SMR reactor.

The startup plans to build hundreds of SMRs at predominantly off-grid sites to power data centers and industrial plants.

Valar ’s underlying technology uses helium gas to reach temperatures up to 900C — triple that of conventional nuclear reactors.
