Why do must nuclear energy startups fail? "I think it's actually been a mindset problem," says Valar Atomics founder Isaiah Taylor (Isaiah Taylor - making nuclear reactors). "I was totally shocked to find that no nuclear startup had ever built a reactor and turned it on." Catch the fully... show more

Gong hit for Isaiah Taylor - making nuclear reactors and the Valar Atomics team for becoming the first nuclear startup to ever make electricity. They did it with their Ward 250 reactor, which powered a Nvidia Spark at their San Rafeal, Utah, site yesterday.

On episode 74 of S3, we visit Valar Atomics, the first startup in history to generate nuclear power, all while beating the July 4th deadline. In just 3 years, Isaiah Taylor - making nuclear reactors went from pitching the idea on an Apple note to the reactor generating electricity, and now NVIDIA is betting on that same reactor to power its next AI data center.

We asked Isaiah Taylor - making nuclear reactors about the nuclear announcements today. "There hasn't been a Ford or Tesla of nuclear energy yet. "Valor Atomics intends to be that company." "If we're going to win on AI, manufacturing, or supply chain, we're going to do it with a ton of cheap energy."

"We sell energy, not nuclear reactors." - Isaiah Taylor - making nuclear reactors, founder of Valar Atomics "The best way to use a Falcon 9 at SpaceX is to own the entire operational cadence. You sell products like kgs to orbit and Internet connectivity." "Nuclear reactors are like this as well. You build reactors on large energy campuses, then sell energy to AI data centers which need hydrogen and synthetic fuels." "If we can make a synthetic fuel that's cheaper than diesel or gasoline, we can become the energy company of the world."

Last May, Valar Atomics promised to build a nuclear reactor and bring it online by July 4, 2026. Yesterday, their reactor went online in Utah — three days before the deadline set by Trump’s executive order to accelerate advanced nuclear testing outside the national labs. The EO’s target was criticality. Founder Isaiah Taylor - making nuclear reactors says they went further: “We didn’t just go critical. We went critical twice.” “And we went to thermal power operations and we went to electricity production.” "We really just hit it out of the park in every dimension." Valar also just announced a partnership with Nvidia to explore nuclear-powered data centers.

.Isaiah Taylor - making nuclear reactors is building planetary scale nuclear reactors at Valar Atomics. He dropped out of high school at 16, founded Valar at 24, raised $450M, and is building America's first nuclear gigasite. 🇺🇸 His advice for Discipulus Ventures hard tech founders: "Get to the hardware problems as soon as you can. You should be experiencing more hardware problems at a greater and greater pace over time."

Valar Atomics Founder Isaiah Taylor - making nuclear reactors says nuclear has a fundamental advantage over natural gas for powering AI data centers because it can scale faster and isn't constrained by pipeline infrastructure. "We believe that nuclear has some fundamental scaling advantages over something like gas. The climate impact is a big part." "The other problem with gas generation is it has really backed up turbines, and it also has natural gas infrastructure that has to scale along with it. We're running out of places where you can just plop down a turbine without having to go and lay pipeline." "With uranium, you have one truckload that delivers an entire year's worth of fuel. That gives you a lot more flexibility on where you build the reactors and how big you can scale those sites. Nuclear has this fundamental advantage."

"The largest electrical site on planet Earth is the Three Gorges Dam in China. Right. It's the largest concrete structure ever created by humans. Massive, massive hydroelectric dam in China. It has a nominal nameplate generation of about 22GW. In practicality, makes about 17GW." Isaiah Taylor - making nuclear reactors
