ABOUT
Deployable Energy
"Our technology is only part of the story. What truly drives our progress is the people behind it. The engineers, operators, and leaders who chose to join this company because they believe in what we’re building and why it matters."

Our Story
About us
Deployable Energy was founded in 2025 on a simple idea: nuclear energy should be a product, not a project. The modern US industrial base is built to manufacture products—repeatable, scalable systems that can be deployed quickly and affordably. We build aircraft at scale, not airports. Energy should be no different.
Based in Houston’s Energy Corridor, we are building nuclear systems in the same way the energy industry builds everything else—through world-class engineering, manufacturing, and supply chains that already operate on a global scale. Our location places us at the center of the world’s energy expertise, with direct access to the infrastructure and talent required to deliver complex systems reliably and efficiently.
Our team brings together leaders from venture-backed deep-tech energy startups, the commercial, research and naval nuclear sectors, traditional energy companies, the military, the U.S. Department of Energy, and national laboratories. We combine entrepreneurial speed with deep technical and regulatory experience to solve one of the hardest problems in energy: delivering affordable, reliable power at scale.
This philosophy drives our technology. Our understanding of these real-world constraints serves as the foundation for our reactor design. The Unity™ microreactor is a 1 MWe nuclear battery designed for manufacturability and rapid deployment. It uses standard fuels, materials, and industrial processes already available at commercial scale. The result is a system that can be produced in volume, deployed quickly, and operated reliably across a wide range of applications.
We are building a future where energy is abundant, resilient, and accessible for behind-the-meter applications, remote communities, maritime and mission-critical operations. Our vision is to deploy hundreds of gigawatts of Unity™ nuclear batteries worldwide, creating a new, scalable energy backbone built on manufacturing, not megaprojects.
We always work to drive down costs.
Nuclear is notoriously expensive and driving down cost informs every decision we make.
We make siting easy.
We don’t need water, heavy site construction, or massive acreage.
We build nuclear for real-world environments.
From desert sites to maritime platforms, Unity systems are designed to operate where other energy technologies cannot.
We design for scalability and affordability.
Standardized, repeatable modules replace first-of-a-kind construction.
We innovate with what is commercially available.
Deployable Energy builds systems that rely on existing supply chains and proven manufacturing techniques. We avoid exotic materials and specialized components that slow deployment or complicate maintenance.
