j; NuSCALE Power June 13, 2017 The Honorable Scott Pruitt Administrator Environmental Protection Agency Room 3400C WJCN MC 1101A 1200 Pennsylvania Avenue, NW Washington, D C 20460 SUBJECT: NuScale Power's Small Modular Reactor - A U.S. Technology Dear Administrator Pruitt: It was a great honor to meet with you last week during the G7 Summit in Bologna, Italy. I am particularly grateful for your interest in my company NuScale Power, a premier U.S. nuclear technology development company We are designing a new kind of nuclear plant; a smaller, affordable, flexible version of existing commercial reactor technology. With our small modular reactors (SMRs), we have an unprecedented opportunity to reinvigorate the U.S. nuclear industry and put America first in the global energy market. This will create jobs and reassert U.S. leadership in nuclear technology innovation As l mentioned, U.S. companies valuethe opportunity to restore coordination with the Environmental Protection Agency on key international engagements. We project that two-thirds of NuScale safes will be overseas to existing and "new to nuclear" countries. In an international civil nuclear market valued in excess of $1 trillion dollars over the next 20 years, the benefits of civil nuclear exports are vital to America's national and energy security interests, and to maintaining the U.S. as the leader in nuclear energy innovation, non-proliferation, and safety. Further, U.S. business sees commercial opportunities in addressing environmental challenges around the world. At stake in this market are billions of dollars per year in U.S. exports, supporting tens of thousands of highly skilled American jobs to construct and operate facilities and fabricate equipment, while creating long-term commercial opportunities. The leadership the EPA continues to show in working with other nations presents a very real opportunity for U.S. industry to compete for and win this business if we continue to work together Finally, our home market should be the testing ground for energy innovation that will help us compete globally. After a decade of design development and investment of over S600M, including $16SM to date from the U.S. DOE, we are readying our first plant for commercial operation in 2026 - the first of hundreds or even thousands of NuScale SMRs that could be operational by 2040. We have a unique opportunity to address the nation's economic, environmental, and energy security goals simultaneously, beginning here at home and then selling our success abroad. Thank you for your interest and support, and I look forward to continuing our work with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency in achieving this national imperative Sincerely, John Hopkins Chief Executive Officer Distribution: Mr. Ryan Jackson, Chief of Staff . - - - ( NuScale Power.
