Deep Fission is an advanced nuclear energy company leading a new era of clean and scalable power. Our mission is to deliver safe, efficient, and cost-effective energy through small modular reactors (SMRs) designed to operate one mile underground. By redefining how and where nuclear power is generated, we are helping global communities and industries meet energy demands affordably.
We’re on a mission to power humanity from a mile underground. Our team brings decades of experience to revolutionize the way power is generated. Deep Fission believes in building ecosystems over empires. We invite people, partners, and nature itself to build with us.
In response to climate change and the need for clean energy, Deep Fission was founded in 2023 by father-daughter team Liz and Rich Muller. Led by a team of seasoned scientists, engineers, and entrepreneurs, the company is committed to delivering safe, reliable, and affordable low-carbon power at scale.
Our underground reactor design delivers up to 80% cost savings by removing the need for high-cost ground construction. With a target Levelized Cost of Energy (LCOE) of $50-70MWe, our technology achieves cost competitiveness with both traditional and renewable energy sources. This makes our nuclear power not only viable, but profitable from the start.
Our modular reactors are designed for versatile deployment across a range of environments. Each location delivers reliable and scalable power tailored to its setting, ensuring consistent performance and security. Our deployment environments include:
We’re powered by a team of scientists, engineers, environmental specialists, regulatory leaders and business professionals all united by our shared mission to make clean and reliable energy affordable and accessible. Together, we are accelerating nuclear innovation with a focus on safety, sustainability, and global impact.
