Blykalla, a global leader in advanced nuclear technology, has submitted an application for Swedish government financing for its planned advanced nuclear reactor park in Norrsundet, two hours north of Stockholm. The first proposed advanced nuclear facility in Sweden would be powered by six SEALER reactors, which are Blykalla’s lead-cooled advanced modular reactors (AMRs).
Located in the municipality of Gävle, Blykalla’s proposed advanced nuclear reactor park is intended to have a total installed capacity of up to 330 megawatts and an estimated annual production of 2.76 terawatt hours. This application is the first to be submitted for advanced nuclear power under the new Swedish financing model, which came into effect on Aug. 1, 2025.
