MetroVolt — Grid & Data-Centre Power

The largest burner housing, sized for utility- and data-centre-scale power.

Products & ApplicationsUpdated 2026-08-11
Housing length
1400 m
Net power
+2832 MWe
Class
13.678 GW

MetroVolt is the 1400 m burner housing, the largest of the three, delivering +2832 MWe net (13.678 GW class) from the same D–³He physics. It targets grid-scale and hyperscale data-centre power where firm, clean, point-of-use generation is valuable.

Because the burner is low-neutron (5.44%) and directly converts to electricity, it can in principle site closer to load than a neutron-heavy plant.

MetroVolt is the largest burner housing at 1400 m, delivering +2832 MWe net (13.678 GW class) from the same D–³He physics as the smaller units. It targets the scarce commodity in a renewable-heavy grid — firm, dispatchable, clean power — and its low neutron fraction lets it, in principle, site nearer to hyperscale load than a neutron-heavy plant.

Common questions

What scale is MetroVolt?

The 1400 m burner housing, delivering +2832 MWe net (13.678 GW class) — sized for grid and hyperscale data-centre power.

Why is it suited to data centres?

It is firm, clean, point-of-use power at large scale, and its low neutron fraction (5.44%) eases siting nearer to load than a neutron-heavy plant.
