Two years later, in 1957, GE's first privately financed nuclear power reactor provided electricity for commercial use in Vallecitos, California.

SFRs help address the challenge of spent nuclear fuel by recycling uranium and transuranics, generating additional electricity while reducing long-term radiotoxicity.

GEH is leading in small modular reactor (SMR) development, offering clean, reliable, and decarbonized power.

GE Hitachi Nuclear Energy owns the Morris Operation—the only de facto high-level radioactive waste storage site in the United States.

[27] Wilmington (New Hanover County, North Carolina, United States of America) It was dedicated in 1969, and is known as the home to the global headquarters.

Produces zirconium-calloy components, uranium dioxide powder and pellets, and fuel assemblies for boiling water reactor market.

[28] Kurihama ( Yokosuka City, Kanagawa Prefecture, Japan) Established in 1970, it has helped Japanese consumers provide nuclear energy.

Originally the area consisted of rural farmlands, but has developed into an industrial community, with the power plant becoming important to the economy in Yokosuka.

[28] GE Hitachi Nuclear Energy (GEH) announced plans to expand its Wilmington operations, aiming to create roughly 500 new jobs over the next five years to support the deployment of its modular reactor, the BWRX-300.

GEH has already hired around 250 employees this year and expects these jobs to significantly impact the North Carolina economy while helping meet climate goals.
