Deep Atomic and Future-tech Announce Strategic Partnership to Advance Nuclear-Powered Data Centers

Deep Atomic, a pioneer in on-site nuclear integration for data centers, and Future-tech, a premier data center design consultancy, today formally announce a strategic partnership. This collaboration is designed to accelerate the development of nuclear-powered data center projects by launching a joint "Stage 0" feasibility and planning program.

This partnership will provide clients with a unifi ed, execution-ready path for assessing and initiating multi-site deployments of data centers powered by Small Modular Reactors (SMRs). The initiative aims to meet the escalating energy demands of artifi cial intelligence (AI) and high-performance computing (HPC) workloads.

The "Stage 0" program integrates Deep Atomic's specialized knowledge in nuclear feasibility with Future-tech's established advisory process and extensive experience in data center design. Future-tech has a track record of delivering over 4 GW of data center designs in the last four years. Deep Atomic is known for the MK60 SMR, the fi rst reactor specifi cally engineered to provide both 60 MW of electricity and 60 MW of cooling capacity, targeting the data center industry.

"Our goal is to help clients make high-confi dence infrastructure decisions at the earliest stages of planning," stated William G.J. Theron, Founder and CEO of Deep Atomic. "By combining Future-tech’s design intelligence with our experience in integrating a range of energy technologies – including nuclear – we off er a unifi ed pathway from opportunity assessment to execution readiness."

James Wilman, CEO of Future-tech, commented, “As data centre capacity continues to grow, it is key to fi nd high-density, sustainable power solutions that are more location-agnostic than renewables such as hydro, wind and solar. We believe SMRs will play an important role in the future energy mix, and we are excited to work with Deep Atomic on site assessment, feasibility, design and integration projects.”

The comprehensive "Stage 0" program encompasses several key phases:

● Stage 0.1: Initial Assessment & Site Screening: Involves rapid RAG (red/amber/green) reviews of site constraints and high-level nuclear viability.
● Stage 0.2: Technical Due Diligence: Engineering studies and up to three “test-fi t” layouts per site, modeling SMR integration and thermal-fl uid energy balances.
● Stage 0.3: Site Maturity & ESG/Economic Analysis: Focuses on developing detailed ROI and Levelized Cost of Electricity (LCOE) models, permitting roadmaps, and ESG impact assessments.
● Stage 0.4: Masterplan & Investment Readiness: Delivers design packs, masterplans for viable sites, and a strategic funding and execution roadmap.

This strategic alliance between Deep Atomic and Future-tech aims to streamline project timelines, optimize site selection, and mitigate regulatory risks for companies pursuing large-scale data center deployments. By identifying optimal sites and technical pathways at an early stage, the partnership anticipates shorter licensing lead times and the avoidance of costly redesigns. Key deliverables will include on-site test-fi t facility layouts, ESG and permitting gap analyses, detailed economic models, and comprehensive masterplan kits suitable for investors and regulators.

Deep Atomic and Future-tech are committed to guiding clients through nuclear feasibility, optimized infrastructure planning, and funding strategy from the outset.
