XCF Global, Inc. has announced an agreement with IP3 Corporation, Southern Energy Renewables Inc., and DevvStream Corp. to explore working together on small modular reactor (SMR) nuclear power. The partnership focuses on producing clean aviation fuel (eSAF) and creating as well as verifying environmental credits.
The goal is to use SMR nuclear power to generate zero-carbon electricity to help produce clean fuels, power AI data centers, and meet environmental regulations. The collaboration will also consider using this electricity for a nuclear power solution in Louisiana to support a proposed clean fuel refinery.
SMR-based nuclear power is expected to help produce hydrogen and clean fuels while also offering clean energy to other customers, supporting the growing need for sustainable energy sources.
Executive Statement
According to Chris Cooper, Chief Executive Officer of XCF Global, this MOU reflects XCF’s disciplined approach to evaluating infrastructure and partnerships that can strengthen the scalability, reliability, and carbon performance of next-generation sustainable aviation fuels. Firm, zero-carbon power is an important enabler for eSAF pathways, and this collaboration allows us to assess how integrated power, fuel, and environmental-attribute frameworks could support broader adoption of clean fuels.
According to RDML (Ret.) Mike Hewitt, Chief Executive Officer of IP3, clean, reliable nuclear power is increasingly being pursued as foundational infrastructure for American energy security and industrial growth. They are excited to explore a strategic relationship with XCF, DevvStream, and Southern, including the potential deployment of small modular reactor technology to provide firm power and support e‑SAF production for European markets.
