plans to deploy a fleet of Small Modular Reactors (SMR) nuclear power plants in Poland and the CEE.
The company has been established to develop and implement zero-emission technologies and electricity production from renewable sources. The company is interested in obtaining affordable, on-demand, carbon-free electricity from a dependable, dedicated source.
We are the exclusive partner of GE Hitachi Nuclear Energy in Poland, and our main goal is to build a fleet of BWRX-300 – SMR designed by GEH.
SGE is also working on solutions allowing for the production of hydrogen from high-temperature steam. Principally we believe that nuclear is another powerful hydrogen production method, adding benefits not available from any other energy source.
The BWRX-300 is a 300 MWe water-cooled, natural circulation Small Modular Reactor (SMR) with passive safety systems that leverages the design and licensing basis of GEH's U.S. NRC-certified ESBWR.
Through dramatic and innovative design simplification, the utilization of a licensed and proven fuel design and the incorporation of proven components and supply chain expertise, the BWRX-300 can become the lowest-risk, most cost-competitive and quickest way to market SMR.
BWRX-300 has been designed to achieve construction and operating costs that are substantially lower than traditional nuclear power generation technologies.

Projected to have up to 60% less capital cost per MW when compared with typical water-cooled SMR
Deployable as early as 2028 thanks to proven know-how and construction techniques
We do not walk alone...
Companies, including Synthos Green Energy, are part of a team led by GE-Hitachi which has been awarded a £33.6 million UK Future Nuclear Enabling Fund (FNEF) grant to support development of the BWRX-300 technology.
At the the press conference at PKN ORLEN’s headquarters, the first potential sites for the BWRX-300 reactors were presented. These are Ostrołęka, Włocławek, Stawy Monowskie, Dąbrowa Górnicza, Kraków-Nowa Huta, the Tarnobrzeg – Stalowa Wola Special Economic Zone and Warsaw.
Synthos Green Energy has signed an agreement for the design of a BWRX-300 SMR from GE Hitachi. The company, together with its partners from the U.S. and Canada, will invest in the development of the GEH BWRX-300 technology.
