The Neutron-Source Product
The breeder as a sellable high-flux neutron source in its own right.
- Product
- Neutrons & derivatives
Independent of electricity, HYPERION is a high-flux neutron source — 70.7 MW of neutron power — valuable for tritium, isotopes and materials testing. Selling neutron-derived products is the breeder's near-term business.
It is the clearest example of Kronos having a product before net electricity.
Common questions
What is the neutron-source product?
The breeder sold for what its 70.7 MW of neutron power can do — breeding tritium and helium-3 and producing medical and industrial isotopes — rather than for electricity.
Why lead with neutrons?
Because that value exists today, independent of grid-scale net-electric fusion. Reframing neutrons from a shielding burden into a product is the commercial heart of building the breeder first.
