Kemmerer Power Station is the first Natrium reactor designed and being built by TerraPower. TerraPower submitted its construction application on 28 March 2024.^[1] Construction on Kemmer Power Station was commenced on 10 June 2024.^[2] The station will have a nominal electrical power output of 345 MW with a maximum power output of 500 MW. This additional power will be provided by energy stored in the plant's molten salt heat storage system similar to that of a concentrated solar power plant.^[3]

Natrium derives its name from the Latin word for "sodium" which is used as the reactor's primary and intermediate coolant.
