Huntsville’s Redstone Arsenal is one of nine installations on a list of possible sites for a new nuclear program by the U.S. Army. Redstone could receive nuclear microreactor power generators by 2030. The small reactors are part of the Army’s Janus Program designed to deliver “secure, resilient, and reliable energy to support national defense installations and critical missions,” according to the Army. According to Stripes.com, microreactors are generally 100 to 1,000 times smaller than a conventional nuclear reactor and can be small enough to be transported via tractor trailer. The reactors can produce up to 50 megawatts of power and can function independently of the traditional electric grid, the site said. The nine sites were identified through an analysis and on-site assessments that included mission-critical installations, energy requirements, power infrastructure, and technical considerations. It’s not a guarantee Redstone will be on the final list and a timeline for the dec...
