Westinghouse announced the launch of a small version of its flagship AP1000 nuclear reactor on Thursday.
The new reactor, called the AP300, aims to be available in 2027, and will generate about a third of the power as the flagship AP1000 reactor, enough to power about 300,000 homes.
It’s expected to cost about $1 billion to set up each plant, a small fraction of the expense of the full AP1000.

Westinghouse's own title announces it "Unveils Game-Changing AP300," targeting first power delivery in about a decade from its May 2023 announcement - roughly 2033, later than the pin's stored 2027/2028 estimated date - though the page itself could not be verified directly.[1]
World Nuclear News confirms Westinghouse unveiled the AP300 SMR on 4 May 2023, targeting first power "within a decade" of that announcement (roughly 2033), somewhat later than the pin's stored 2027/2028 estimated date, consistent with the uncertainty already flagged in the pin's own "estimated" confidence.
