Project Pele

Project Pele is an initiative by the United States Department of Defense (DoD) aimed at developing a compact and mobile nuclear microreactor that can provide reliable power for military operations and forward bases. The project seeks to enhance energy resilience and operational capabilities in remote or austere environments where traditional power sources may be limited or non-existent. The microreactor is designed to be safe, efficient, and capable of being deployed quickly to support various military missions.
