Not everyone gets to visit the two new advanced AP1000 modular reactors at Plant Vogtle in the United States. This is your chance to see one up close, bricks size. Real AP1000 units are now faster and more cost effective to build because of our modular design and mature supply chain. Want to try building a bricks-size AP1000 reactor yourself? We're giving away another five Westinghouse bricks sets to people who reshare this post. We'll draw names on Monday from everyone who reposted! Can't wait to share the fun!

"We're very much into the world of nuclear energy, and we can have it now at good prices," President Donald J. Trump Donald J. Trump said Wednesday at World Economic Forum. Two advanced AP1000® modular reactors are currently operating in the U.S., powering more than one million households and businesses with safe, 24/7 #nuclearenergy — and we're just getting started!

Bricks George Westinghouse and his Bricks engineering buddy have done it! They completed our new advanced modular AP1000® PWR building blocks set. Constructing a real AP1000® reactor is getting easier and faster! The sixth AP1000 reactor went into operation in the U.S. state of Georgia in 2024. It was 30% faster to build and 20% less expensive than the fifth one completed just the year before. The AP1000 reactor’s simple, modular design comes with the smallest footprint of any advanced gigawatt reactor design and pumps out more than 1,100 megawatts of emissions-free electricity 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. That’s enough power for 750,000 homes!

Today, Westinghouse Interim CEO Dan Sumner shared with President Donald J. Trump Donald J. Trump and U.S. Sen. Dave McCormick our bold plans to deliver on the President's vision to have 10 large reactors under construction across the U.S. by 2030, which is expected to create $75 billion in economic value. “We’ve taken the call-to-action under your executive order to partner with companies across our industry to mobilize a plan to deliver 10 AP1000® reactors in the US with construction to begin by 2030,” Dan Sumner said during the CEO Roundtable at the inaugural Energy Summit and Expo in Pittsburgh, Pa. “When we deploy a fleet aligned to your vision, we’ll drive $75 billion of economic value across the United States with $6 billion of value here in Pennsylvania. Implementing your vision will create or sustain over 55,000 jobs across the country and over 15,000 jobs in the Commonwealth alone, and these are great jobs across manufacturing, engineering, and construction.” The time for home-grown nuclear energy is now and Westinghouse is ready to deliver. Thank you, President Trump and the many leaders who came to the summit today. The White House Listen in to Dan’s full speech during the CEO Roundtable this afternoon:

Today, we announced that Westinghouse is collaborating with Google Cloud to use AI to accelerate the construction of advanced Westinghouse nuclear reactors and improve operations in our current nuclear fleet. AP1000® technology is the quickest way to add new sources of affordable and abundant nuclear energy to the U.S. grid. Westinghouse’s powerful HiVE™ and bertha™ nuclear AI solutions and Google Cloud technologies are joining forces to make construction of new nuclear power plants even faster. Learn more about this new partnership launched at today’s first-ever Energy Summit and Expo at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh, Pa, organized by U.S. Sen. Dave McCormick:
