Project Seeks to Deploy Technology for U.S. Department of the Air Force and Defense Innovation Unit through Advanced Nuclear Power for Installations Program
Cranberry Township, PA, April 23, 2026 – Westinghouse Government Services announces that the eVinci™ microreactor has been proposed for Malmstrom Air Force Base (AFB) by the Department of the Air Force, in conjunction with the Defense Innovation Unit (DIU), through the Advanced Nuclear Power for Installations (ANPI) program.
This is the next step in the ongoing contract between Westinghouse Government Services and the Department of the Air Force and DIU for the proposed deployment of a contractor-owned and operated nuclear microreactor on a Department of the Air Force installation. Under the ANPI agreement, Westinghouse and its deployment partners will evaluate siting and construction of an eVinci microreactor at Malmstrom AFB.
“Westinghouse’s eVinci microreactor is perfectly suited to ensure our Armed Forces have the reliable and resilient energy they need for mission-critical operations globally,” said Rich Rademacher, President, Westinghouse Government Services. “We look forward to continuing our strong partnership with the Department of the Air Force and the Defense Innovation Unit.”
The eVinci microreactor builds on decades of industry-leading Westinghouse innovation to deliver flexible, portable and resilient energy to remote locations for a variety of defense applications. The highly reliable eVinci microreactor has very few moving parts and provides 5 megawatts of electricity, delivered 24 hours a day, seven days a week for eight-plus years without refueling. The technology is designed to be factory-built and assembled before it is shipped.
